"It happened to me...."
  by Planted Daisies


It happened to me...(SC Oneline Challenge)


It happened to me
All I did was fall asleep
Never thought he would think that way
To want to degrade my body
In such a nasty way

It happened to me
He woke me up out of the blue
With the smell of drunk
The went across the room

It happened to me
He told me to be quiet
And never say a word
Now that a kiss he finally stole

It happened to me
And I still can’t believe
That his hands wondered by body
Making me feel all dirty inside

It happened to me

It happened to me

He degraded my self worth
And violated me
Like no one had done before
As I shed tears
I beg and plea for him to stop
I want him off
I want this to end
And when he is through
He pretends to tuck me in
And wish me a good night sleep

Now I lay here
Filthy…..disgusted beyond belief
He had taken my innocence away
And I was only thirteen
How can this be?
I can never look at him the same
When I look to his face
Fear is all I can feel
I didn’t ask for it
It just happened to me

How can I deal with the pain?
The pain left
When he cut into my flesh
And into my very soul
Now that he lays there
Lays by my mother
Pretending to love her
When he hurt me so

I was only a child
Not yet a woman
These wounds have left
Permanent scars that wont erase
Reminding me
That he disrespected my space
He was suppose to love my mother
Praise her and adore her
But why?
Why treat me this way….
What did I do to him?
For him to treat me this way
I didn’t ask for him to touch me

All I did was lay asleep
Thinking I was safe
But he walked in drunk
And….and…there was nothing I could do
No punch or scratch that would get him off
He was bigger than me
He was stronger than me
He abused me
He used me
Why….why….why me?
Why did it have to happen to me?

I am enjoying this new journey that your pen is on... writing is all about touching on every aspect of the world even the stuff people dare not mention. Deep piece

Hopefully this is not true. Either way it was a great write and you developed the story well. You had my attention the entire time. This is no doubt a 10.
