The day tragedy struck



And even on a happy joyous day that I celebrate my birthday .did he take away ..my smile turned into a crying frown my crown hitting the ground my face on the pavement..for all accounts be true..you will receive your just due..foul and vulgar.. disrespectful and humiliating degrading and defecating to my soul..my body he defouled in the worse way he raped me and captured the moment in time and for that act..I had no comeback..I had no fight no will no drive..just laid in disqust and felt myself die.. screaming cries to my father to not forsake me but take me..lift me up and let me be free..free of the noose around my neck shackles around my arms and feet I suffered such great defeat..rest and sleep I needed as my heart did weep..
