Something Happened

It was never my attention To be a victim It was never my attention To walked on the street all alone It was never my attention If only you hear me out. Mama told me never walk all alone Mama told me never to make mention of men Mama told me many things But mama never told me she was rape Mama never told me the story Even when I tried bringing it up But today Here I am Being a victim of rape like my mama
