Stolen Love

Stolen Love Getting off work late Round about nine O’clock Running through the alley Across from the parking lot Three feet from my car Someone grabbed me from behind One man appeared In front of me saying; Don’t scream lady its fine A strong arm around my neck I found it hard to breathe I found myself being dragged Between two palm trees Masks covered their eyes Only their mouth did show Why is this happening I only wanted to know “Please stop, Let me go!” I don’t want your love To do this selfish act You got a lot of nerves. A five minute pleasure Turned into a life time of pain I laid there on the ground Telling myself I am to blame All of my sorrow I Could no longer hide Dead and ashamed is What I felt inside Lying on the ground I cried many tears To have someone Take my love What else can I feel? Nothing will ever be The same I could never explain How stolen love Left me lifeless And brought about A change The whole time they Stole from me They thought it was a game Now I spend most of my Time looking in the mirror Hating the person I see Knowing that along the Way I am no longer me I cannot change what they Stole from me that night They never had permission Nor did they have the right If I had the power to change One thing in my life; It would be to skip the pain That I endured that night

Lillie, if this is true, Please please get counseling. If it has been a recent happening, it will still be painful but if it's been a long time and still you are thinking about it, I really hope you get help. you can't let this ruin your life. Don't let him win. Sorry this happened to you. Luv, Andrea

omg this is the saddest thing to hear. Did this really happen? I am quite angered by this. And if it did happen you should not feel ashamed. I am so sorry.

Nicole, thanks for your support. At first I had doubts about writing this because it is so embarrassing. Then I said why not? Poetry is all about the way you feel right? I am thankful for your support and kindness. Thanks my friend, and may God always share your life, and be blessed in the Lord.
