What Happened?
I walk from the building,
my body sore.
He grabbed my wrist,
tossed me to the floor.
Punishments I'm given,
for crimes I did not commit.
The blood is dried beneath my nose,
around my eyes and ears.
Tell myself please be strong,
please don't cry a tear.
For if you do,
more clothes will tear,
and pray your life will end.
"just do what I say."
It will all be okay.
