he always will.
He stayed around,
to have his fill.
For your heart,
he has no care.
You're torn apart,
no it's not fair.
But I speak no lies,
why would I need?
When his disguise,
is the lie indeed.
You are just young
and he plays your heart.
Not yet begun,
but you'll fall apart.
Why is it hurting,
so very much?
It scorches, is burning,
like a filthy touch.
That's his doing,
not ever mine.
It''s you whose losing,
ahead of time.
How did I become,
as cruel as you see?
I once was the one,
that was held by he.
The truth does hurt,
lies cannot scratch the same.
You'll forever be burnt,
by that that guys filthy game.

5. "A truth that's told with bad intent
Beats all the lies you can invent." -William Blake
Lisa, who is going out with the guy who raped me, went to hit me, beat up some of my friends and looked at child porn. She is 15 and she doesn't see the badness. She's only just realised that I wasn't lying, that I was telling the truth and that hurts much more than any lies.
I want to protect her, but I wont lie I want to get back at that sonofabitch who did those things to me and those other girls. So I class this as somewhat bad intent.
Hope this is okay.

a brilliant write!
although i am upset to hear of your friend's position [and even more so to hear of your story!!!], what you have penned here is a very honest, very truthful work! it doesn't entirely coincide with what the quote was trying to say, but then again the interpretation of quotes is entirely subjective so hey, who am i to judge how you took it? lol all in all, you wrote so little words and yet the message you brought forth was monumental and can even be applied to the general population... you did a great, great job here
thanks for your entry, and good luck in the competition!
PS tell that chick, lisa, that i said to ditch the bastard. i just hope it doesn't get to the point where she gets hurt like the rest of you poor women, and i sincerely hope he gets what's coming cuz karma can kick some ass!!!! -

I interpreted the quote in the sense Lisa didn't want to hear how bad he was, as she doesn't want to be alone but sometimes it's better to be alone than broken. It was bad intentions, considering I wanted to hurt him as well. I wanted him to break like I did when he hurt me?
Anyways thanks for your great comment. I'm glad you understand and yes, it can be generalised that you should sometimes be weary of kind strangers who get too heavy way too quick and are quick to compliment.
I hope she doesn't get hurt like we did.
I will send the message on :]
he's up where I live tomorrow and I'm scared as put a report against him to the police so he probably wants to beat me.
More scared for my female friends though and even some male friends. I am relatively selfless so I am not too worried about me.
Anyways, this is WAAAY long sorry bout that. Thought I'd explain!

sorry? girl, please- don't worry about it.
ah yes, i can see how you interpreted it now lol it makes sense
and i truly can't blame you for wanting to hurt him, it is more than deserved! and that is very honorable for you to want to protect your friends... but the only thing that i can say is that, by not reporting it, you're giving him the chance to do it again... and again... and again. <- i know, not cool to think about but you've got to stop a monster in its tracks cuz otherwise they could just build up momentum, and then it'll only get harder. the police can help, and if you explain your situation you could have protection, or worst case just relocate and let your friends know what's up for a bit.
he needs to be stopped. period.

This was very well written. I think that it is great that you are trying to protect this young girl. I hope that asshole pays for what he did.
