You're The Reason

© Janessa Blackmon
I was so comfortable
thought I could tell you
anything, but that one
day at your house
playing in the
slip-n-slide in my
swim suit. my cousins
were there, yet they
had no clue, when
we were playing hide-n-seek,
you grabbed me, threw
me on the bed
and did things
when I told you
no, a couple years
pass and the trust
is still gone, nothing
will ever be the
same, one day at
your house, you're
drunk off your
ass and you promise
me you won't touch
me again, yet two
weeks later your
teaching me how to drive
and you break your
promise, you're
the reason I'm not
comfortable around
guys, the reason
I'm scared of the
Dr's the reason
I don't trust
any other guys
the reason I can't
be myself anymore!
I blame you!!!
I was young and
didn't know any
better, yet you still
took advantage of
me, I just want
to know why, but
you won't tell me!!!!!!!!!
