I Don'T Have a Title For This
I don't have a title for this
But I promise that fear won't become my rival from this
I won't let a horrible moment make me suicidal from this
I have a lot to get off my chest but I don't have a title for this
I refuse to be broken so I'm trying to stay strong
but the flashbacks of what happened, are making every day long
I need to use this anger for something productive and not destructive
I need to find my own closure and allow peace of mind to be my justice
a night out with friends turned bad on my way home
2 guys approached me while I was on my own
They asked if I had a lighter, I told them I don't smoke, then one grabbed me while the other searched my pockets
He didn't take anything, but he touched me inappropriately and there was nothing I could do to stop it
I've never felt less of a man because I froze when he put his hand down my jeans
I felt too embarrassed and humiliated to try and scream
It only lasted about 30 seconds to a minute but it replays a lot in my mind
I'm taking it one day at a time, but I promise that I will be fine
I'm letting this be known because I don't want to bottle it up and have it affect me at a later date
I'm trying to not think about it too much, because my mind won't allow me to remember the guys face
I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing
Even though I was broken that night, I won't allow it to cause me continuous heartbreak
I don't know if I'll talk about this again because it makes me uncomfortable
Never again will I allow myself to be this vulnerable
I'll smile again and fear won't be my rival from this
This was difficult for me to write, I'm sorry that I don't have a title for this
