Consequences of a One Night Stand

by Rainbow - Capricorn

There was no way for me to escape,
I was held down and beaten-I was raped.
I didn't learn the first time around,
Now I lay helpless, bleeding on the ground.
Gotten drunk too often, a lesson I've learned,
Too bad I had to wait until I got burned.
Did I know the attacker? Yes, I know the man,
His Name? Can't remember, he was once a one night stand.
But because I'd been drunk, I gave him what he wanted,
He assumed I was "easy", and took that for granted.
Because of my actions, for life I'm now scarred,
The very depths of my soul forever are marred.

Reason for writing:

    Think before you act.
