V iolence promised in your smile even as gentle hands caress
I nvading, penetrating; I am naked, though fully dressed
C alculated whispers chosen for my inexperienced ears
T aking my youthful innocence and destroying it with heavy smears
I n your touch I tremble as I feel my face go hot
M ade a victim of your perversion, and yet I know it not.
