I Wanted Out

By bethanygreen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I wish I would of known I had always trusted you I thought I was alone And then I turned around to see you You grabbed me by the arms And tried to force me down I tried forever to pull away But you just kept your ground You started touching me I wanted it to stop But you wouldn’t let me free Dead, I wished you would drop You looked at me and grinned In a sly and scary way I thought you were my friend When I went in your room that day. I told you I didn’t like it And you looked at me once more I tried to move away As I reached for the door You wouldn’t let go of me And I started to get scared That wasn’t the place I wanted to be Cause I knew you didn’t really care You looked into my eyes “He won’t know,” you said. He didn’t hear my cries So my clothes you tried to shed Why didn’t you leave me alone? When you knew it wasn’t right Your trueself you had shown As you held me down that night --- Bethany Green 4-10-02 Written April 10th, 2002 © on Apr 10 2002 09:58 AM PST   18 • 0 • 9
