Elephant

Sometimes I wake up from this nightmare

Reliving it so vividly.

If i could’ve escaped I would have.

I can still feel the tightness of your grip on my arms.

How i swallowed screams

When your hand restrained them from ever being heard.

How could I have ever let you control this sacred part of me?

I’ll never be able to take back this moment

Never able to move past it

When will I ever be set free?
