Rape Poem

This is a poem I decided to write about my experience with rape and how I realized that he wasn't worth my tears although I'd be lying if I didn't get upset every now and then over it, I mean I did look up to the man as an uncle or something similar to that so I hope it helps some people (even though I don't see how) to accept what can't be done and accept the fact that don't worry he'll get his in the end.

It's Okay Because At least I'm Not Like You

You’re nothing but a dirty old man
But I knew it was some sort of elaborate plan
Its okay but let me ask did I fulfill your needs
Sure it doesn’t matter that you made me bleed
Did it feel good to use me like I was just a piece of dirt?
Use those lines all you want there’s no need to flirt?
Tell me you love me while you take it all away
Cos I still wont believe a single word you say
I remember telling you no and go away too
But apparently it wasn’t up to me it was up to you
Tell me I’m a good girl and how good I was
How there is no need to make such a fuss
And though I still cry in my sleep and feel the pain
And I think of killing you when I hear your name
And I never felt so disgusted like I haven’t bathed in years
But I must thank you for making me realize my fears
Before I wasn’t scared and believed I was unbeatable
But thanks to you, you showed me that I’m vulnerable
It’s funny how easily I can be broken like a piece of glass
How slowly in a moment like that time will pass
But I look at you now and you’re nothing but scum
You have no money, no house, no friends, or fun
So even though I’m scarred and the pain will never heal
At least in the torment you live in right now is real
Your thirty years old and you’ve done nothing with your life
No kids, no relatives or even a loving wife
Makes me laugh because I realize how sad it must be
To know the only thing you accomplished in doing is me
I'll live my life to the full and have a smile on my face
I'll wipe you off my mind and leave you alone in this place
I don’t feel sorry for you or how you find it hard to survive
Cos you stopped me from living a normal life
So cry in front of me and beg for mercy
I wont show it to you, someone so unworthy
I'll ignore the pain and the tears you cry
And don’t you dare ask me why
Cos put it simply my darling so you could understand
Go back to memory lane and press rewind
Remember my face, remember the untouched version
But from meeting you my attitude has worsened
I’m no longer the innocent girl you once knew
I’m sorry rapist if you still don’t have a clue
I’m saying you’ll get no mercy from me
Cos where was it when I asked for it

  • I read lots of these poems, but I have never left a comment before. But I got to the end and it said ''has this poem touched you?'' and the simple truth is yes. At the end my eyes were wet and my heart was sore. Your words are beautiful even though they describe something ugly. Your strength shines through your words.

  • Your poem really has expressed every emotion I feel. I just wished I was as strong as you and so many others and just lived and focused on the positive things in my life and life its self.

  • Reading this poem has brought up a lot of emotions for me. My grandfather stole my innocence when I was 6 years old. I will never forget or forgive! But with specialist counseling I can move forward now.

  • I sit here and read your words they touch me deeply. my stepdad took away a lot of things from me and while my mom watched I began to lose hope's can only remember my mom stepping in once to save me mostly she joined in. When I finally got away I got into a relationship like my childhood because that was all I knew. I thought that's how life was supposed to be. But when I was lying in that hospital bed hanging on to my life I realized I didn't have to go through this anymore that it wasn't my fault. You always here you go through thing for a reason and I was so angry at god because I couldn't understand why he could let that man come into my room and rape me every night and all the beatings I got. Well then one day I was in the court room with my little brother he's got special needs and was put through some of things too but there I was fighting for custody. I was granted custody. He's been a blessing and now I realize what that reason in my life was for him. I've put my pain aside to raise him.
