Nightfall

"Nightfall"

lay me me down to

sleep, say my prayer.

wish you were here

to hold me to keep him

from me.

I hear my door click

he is walking in.

I panic looking for

an escape.

its to late now

he has me tied down.

he begins to strip

me. i begin to wish,

wish that it would end, that

you were here.

the cloths are gone

he leaves me for awhile.

i begin to shiver, you

text, i can opem and read it.

"are you okay" it

reads

i reply "NO! HELP!"

no answer

he comes back i'm

cold as hell, i have

hypothermia, it begins.

he climes on top

of me, penatrets,

i cry, it hurts, he is

done with me he unties

me and says "clean

Yourself slut"

i sit up rock band and forth

crying holding myself

you come through my window

run to my aid help me

i cry even more

you get me to your

place, i'm shacking

now, you get me clean

and in bed

you hold me close,

i sleep

i begin to dream

i'm back home

he is raping me

again. i scream

aloud "NO! STOP!
LET ME GO!" i begin

to hit you wake me

up i cry.

for hours on end

in your arms. i return,

home befor dawn,

its night and it

happens again

i look for your

help your warm

embrace and ice

cold body but

your not here.

your embrace

 vanishes.

i cry harder

try to kill myself

but nothing works

i wish you were

back. it happens

more and more now.

the flashbacks

come more offten. the

tears don't stop

the cuts are more

frequent now.

your gone but

it never stops

HELP ME!
