Your shadow creeps around my room.
I close my eyes and squeeze tight,
hoping...praying you wont come in.
I can't take you touching me...
with your cold, rough hands again.
I see you in my nightmares now.
You use to make me feel safe,
the way an uncle should,
be there to protect me..
and i really wish you would.
But instead you come into my room
and sit next to my bed.
I close my eyes tighter....
wishing it would go away.
Your hands slide accross my leg,
my eyes begin to flood.
I wish my mom could see you now,
your nails scrape me
and i try not to move.
Wanting to speak and say stop,
but no words come out.
Silence is screaming in my ears,
tears running down my cheeks.
You finish and leave my room,
do you feel better now?
The innocence i once had lost,
and a new meaning to forever!
