The poem below is written in honor of April begin sexual assault awareness month. Most people never talk about these things, but you probably know at least one person who has lived this. Women and men, young and old, all demographic of people are both directly and indirectly effected by sexual assault, but many will never tell their stories. Would you be willing to listen if they did?
trigger warning: this poem talks about sexual assault.
One touch
He wanted her
led to another
his hands across her skin
she didn't like it
he'd get what he wanted
pushing away
he liked her feisty
only encouraged him
he'd take what he wanted
to get what he wanted
despite her tears.
despite her pain.
