What Is No
She lays there
Unable to move
Afraid to breathe
Eyes closed tight.
She knows she drank to much
But not that much.
His hot breathe is on her skin
His hands moving down her body
She silently mumbles no
And clenched her legs closed tightly
Please, just leave me alone
She thinks in her mind.
She feels his body on her
His hands unbuttoning her pants
And violently pulling them off
And she lays there silent
To afraid to yell or fight
Silently praying someone walks in
Then it begins
Forcing himself inside
As a tear of pain falls from her eye
He pushes on
With each thrust, the pain escalates
Scream! She thinks
Fight back
But she lays still in fear and humiliation
And then it's done.
And he walks away.
And she's left there in tatters
Believing it was her fault
Rapes not rape
When you don't fight
When you don't say no, right?
