Nervous and shaking, A young girl Rises slowly from the ground upon which she was thrown. With rumpled clothes and messy hair, she smoothes her skirt very carefully. as the tears flow down her face, the feelings of worthlessness return. they pull her down in all of her brokenness, and drive her to weep silently, alone. he had said that he loved her more than life - and that he wanted to be with her and no one else. as she walks away, she still believes his empty promises and his fallen future for them. as she is questioned, she defends him - it wasn't his fault. he loves me, she told her mother. it was just a big mistake, she cried as she fell into the chair, worn through from hours of crying. everyine told her to run from his embrace; he wasn't treating her right. her sightless vision of him destined her to fear and unneccesary pain. lying on the ground, her body broken, her heart torn, and alone, she weeps.
Reason for writing:
i think that so many girls in relationships today allow their boyfriend to take advantage of them and don't truly realize that they have a say in what is done to them. this is talking about a rape that a girl, though obviously hurt, will not call as such since she is blinded by her love for her boyfriend.
