I sat down and greeted all of my friends And this is where my childhood ends I felt a hand upon mine I knew it was his I wonderedwhat the problemn is I looked to him for a response But my childhood ended there at once I tried to pull away but my body would not obey I opened my mouth...but nothing came out I hadnt the nerve to scream or shout I told myself it wasnt happening That rape was a seldom occuring thing I finally unfroze, and sat up again I hardly remebered where it was and when All I could see in my mind was him A painful memory that will never grow dim I ran for help after a year had passed Thinking I could get some help at last But these efforts were of no use I couldnt prove the abuse So now its over for them, they depart But nobody can heal the wounds in my heart
