~Raped But Not Dead~

 ~Raped But Not Dead~

Alive Am I
Without A Doubt 

Tortured & Beaten
But I Got Out

My Body
Taken Over
Controlled
With NO Respect
My Spirit
Broken
Paved Over With Cement

Left Alone
Was I To Die 

With Me Was God
As I Did Cry

Much Time Has Past 

But I Still Cry 

I Miss The Little Girl Was I

Under That Cement
I Still Reside
Chiseling Away
At The Brokenness Inside

Growing Stronger
Day By Day 
Connecting With Life
Along The Way   

Still I Have
A Long Way To Go
Life Is Just Fine
And Then... I Don't Know   

Come A Day There Will
When I Will Be Free   

Maybe Heaven
Will Be Just The Key   

But For Now As I Wait
To Unlock That Door   

Glad Am I
To Live A Little Once More
