Males in My Eyes (TW for mention of SA)



I can no longer see
Most of them as good,
Kind-hearted
Human beings,
For my definition of them
Has been smashed
Into a million shards.
I can no longer see
Most of them as decent,
For now I believe them
To be
Evil,
Wicked,
Sick,
Creepy,
Disgusting males.
Their reputations
That most likely
Are only filled
With goodness
Are now stained
With the blood
Of my slaughtered innocence.
I'm hurting so much,
And now I can
Only think of them
As monsters.

About this poem

I don't want to feel this way around half of the world's population. It sucks feeling this way and I can never feel safe.
