Hallucination-Torture

His footsteps right outside the door I can hear them… Closer and closer Can you hear it? Shhh little girl listen I run to the door to hold it shut 5 minutes… 10 minutes No one comes. I look out to find That no ones home. I feel him on my skin You’re not here But forever within Your burned into my mind Like a song in a nightmare Or a horrible lullaby. I can feel his touch I sense it… Closer and closer Can you feel it? Be still little girl… Pretend to sleep 5 minutes… 10 minutes It never comes… I remove the covers I look out to find That no ones here I feel him inside of me Next to me... Forcing me I hear you It’s a delusion I feel your touch Its an illusion I smell your cologne Its imagination I see your face It’s a nightmare So scared Hiding my pain Cant cry I’m going insane Hiding the truth From all of you What would you do If you really knew Knew what he’s done Knew what never should have begun The scars and pain will never be undone.
