Rape Poem

I was sexual assaulted by my step-father from the age 6 till 12. After that I went into foster care. My mom died when I was 10 and we couldn't live together anymore (including my brother) and they were suspecting something too.. It mostly happened every Sunday since that was always the day that we had to come into the bed of my parents to talk about our problems. Only it happened quite different after my mom passed.

Church Service

It was like a church service
my body was the church
and with all your sins
you came in me
I tried to be silent
as I prayed for a God

Tears rolling down my face
as I felt my spirit leaving the temple
that once was my body
Sorry father
for everything I have done wrong
Have mercy
for the ones that feel like heaven
may never really have existed

It was like a church service
that I had to attend every week
as I believed in a God
that was there for me through it all

I send you blessings, God's light, love, and healing. Fear not, for you are loved byond measure. You have done no wrong. If we have just one thought of forgiving those we feel have hurt us, we shall heal. This is the promise of Christ.
