"She asked for it" he claimed

They like to place blame

Whose fault is it? Is it mine? Should I tell?

Suddenly my mind begins to yell 

Tainted, showers will not wash the filth away

Parylyzed, victimized, my conscious taunts me everyday

Whore! The voice screams, coming from within

Time slows, a brutal blow, I deserved this sin

No One Wants You Now

I've been violated

Asking for it? I didn't, I feel so frustrated. 

Drunk, zero control, whisp of memory, perhaps it was imagined

Witnesses won't talk to me, my heart stops and fist clenches

Self-blame, an endless amount of shame, this burden is now mine

Lost in thought

Never again

"I swear I'm fine, just fine."
