They look, see a body they wanna touch,
which disgust me so much.
Creepy old guys are in my daily life,
which makes me want to stay inside.
Cute outfit, I wanna wear it,
but wait,
what are the consequences for it.
They stare, they come close,
"nothing will happen",
is what I hope.
"Please don't do anything",
I say in my mind,
every time.
"You're being paranoid" they say,
"not everyone is like that",
how can you be so sure it's a fact.
I can't defend myself,
pisses me off so much,
why can't i speak up.
Maybe it's because,
I'm scared of what they'll think of.
