The Last Letters Of Vanessa

letter ten

dear you,

i caught you in my sight,

but i didn't see you,

what i saw was you touching me.

i saw you hurting me.

tears formed in my eyes,
but they didn't spill.

because no amount of tears,
get rid of the memories.

i caught the sight of you wide-eyed. you looked scared.

and then you hid that quickly, with your smirk.

you headed towards me.

'no, please don't.'

'you don't get to say that, slut.'

the words, they replayed.

over and over and over again.

i flinched,
but i don't know,
if it was because of you
or the memories.

'i hope you enjoyed last night. don't even think about telling someone. no one will believe you anyway.

you're too fat and ugly to be raped.'

and you left me
in the hallways
full of people
yet somehow
they felt
empty.

like my mind.

except
the memories
they never
leave.
