Hungry Wolves

On that heinous night you shrouded me off my dignity and ruptured My whole life 
I bleed like watermelon 
despite the tears rolling down my cheeks you keep on riding on me because you're a filth 
my eyes got puffy and red 
A part of me has been torn apart 
the pluck in his eyes shows he's a monster 
He played his game to him I was a chess 
i was so helpless as I watched My dignity taken away 
A pride that will never be mend 
whenever he feels a thirst,  I was his prey to quench his thirst of lust
As tears keeps rolling down my chins just like an ocean 
I can still feel his dirty hands penetrating through my poor skin
I can hear the echoes of mockery all around me 
my  breath got stuck at the back of my throat 
I can't hold myself 
the hours you spent strumming me will not make you a macho man 
You murdered my innocence and took my sanity away
No matter how many times I bath I still stinks 
is the season of hunger where dogs eat their own
His words are ruthless and cruel , but your words make the spark inside of me grow to a raging fire 
my body isn't yours to swallow
All the metaphors remain thesame 
Why did you choose me to satisfy your deadly lust 
Because I was born with a  or because I have legs with a space between them or I look sweet for a taste 
Are we turning into a statistic
You deserve to die and your body devoured by animals 
pieces of me are still lying on the floor 
Tell me what to do 
should I disperse them to the winds of insouciance  or will you keep them safe for me in your heart
When I talk about my trauma am not asking you to carry it or relieve me from it am just asking you for your time to feel a little light in my heart so that I can reclaim my own body 
Even the words slices my tongue each time I try to talk 
Now I speak,  for I'm done being weak
stop invading our privacy 
we'll take control of our own bodies and uphold our pride and dignity 
it's time to raise 
it's time for justice 
we're the voice of the raped
