He Took Away Her Innocence

Trapped in her own body unable to escape her internal scares, she's emotionally drained she's physically damaged. She takes a blade and cuts her wrist just so that she can take away the numbness of the feeling. She feels bottled up inside, at times it feels like she can't breath. She looks at herself in the mirror and she wishes she never survived. Everywhere she goes she is reminded of how her innocence was taken away from her. She looks into people's eyes and she can sense how they pity her. Deep inside she lives , deep inside there is hope but she wakes up to a world of hopelessness. When she is alone she is crowded with a bunch of problems, when she is alone she recalls on the incident, how he held a gun and pointed it between her eyes and told her not to breath. She closed her eyes for a minute and woke up thoughtless. She tried to express her pain to people, but nobody believed her, nobody took the time to understand her pain, what she had gone through. Instead they told her how foolish she was to have allowed him to force himself on her, they sat her down and told her that he loved her and that he choose her. She's alone. She's lost. She's worried. She's fearful of what she might do to herself.
