SPEAK
"You Motherfucker"
She said as she let the darkness within her
That she suppressed and kept hidden for
so long, awaken.
Rendering him powerless
with every word she spoke.
Her blatant disregard for his feelings
was evident... He deserved NO mercy!
At seven years old she had the
privilege of dancing with the devil.
His smell of cheap cologne, bogies and whiskey
stained on her clothes
And her cries were muffled by his hand
As he groped her tightly.
No boobs...no ass
But that didn't stop him from touching.
Whispered in her ear "sexy" as he used her body
And disregarded her soul.
His fingers violently ripping away
the petals of her innocence, as he tore through
the layers of his own daughter's love.
Beating her trust into fear
Black and blue reminders of the
intamacy they shared.
Told her she deserved it
And she believed him.
Said "this is our little secret"
And she kept it.
Too afraid to speak.
