Thirteen

By Nici

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

On the day you took me in the park and in the woods nearby You did not expect me To know how to work you inside. Once a virgin at twelve Soon to be a lover at thirteen I took you like a woman It was more than you had ever seen. At the empty tennis courts And the grassy fields of wild-flower We moaned of chaotic pleasure During the last dusky hour. My legs ached and shivered You could hardly stand My blood stained skirt Tangled between your hands. The day light was diminishing Soon I would have to leave You took me to the shower My skirt you helped me clean. The walk home was agonizing Sex poured from my womb I knew if we ever spoke again That it wouldn't be soon. I sat silently at the dinner table The plate resting under my hands I could not believe I had given myself To a nineteen year old man. I questioned my morality yet denied my guilt or shame I knew he was what I wanted And soon I would do it again. Written October 7th, 2001 © on Oct 07 2001 12:00 PM PST   0 • 16
