24 Years

Tell me!

How will I ever forget this

24 years of isolation?

24 years of black.

I will never forget this

24 years of separation

24 years of pain?

I will never forget this

24 years of ignorance

24 years of hate.

How will I ever forget?

Raped and used with my own blood

You stole my life and dreams.

You are my darkest fear.

I will never be the same

I will never smile again

You brought the darkness into my life

You taught me how to cry.

Why?

Why?

My inner struggle will just end when I

Take my last breath

And I will see you suffer

Until you close your eyes.

I'm just an empty shell.

I will never forget this

24 years of trepidation

24 years of lies

How will I ever forget?

You stole my innocence

And gave me living death.

Just an empty shell

I'm just an empty shell.

SHELL!

My inner struggle will just end when I

Take my last breath

And I will see you suffer

Until you close your eyes.

I will never be the same

I will never smile again

You brought the darkness into my life

You taught me how to cry.

Why?

Why?
