Laying there under the covers, tears are my only friend.
Do you remember when I said no?
Silly me, you must have not heard my fear.
My body like ice, standing still in time. I said no! Why couldn't you hear? Maybe because my voice is so small, just how you wanted it after all.
I'm stuck in the in-between, you were meant to love me, yet you ignored me.
Why couldn't you take no for an answer?
Remember when I fell to the floor? Dying inside because of what you just did only moments before.
That darkness inside of you came out to play, the one you tried so hard to keep at bay. But maybe it was my fault? Maybe my dress was too short?
I screamed so hard, but no sound came out, I was in a different place somewhere in my mind where bad things never happen. If you didn't listen to me in the first place why would you listen now?
How many times did I say no? But you just hushed me and said its okay, held me till my light burned out.
Maybe because I was young and in love I forgave you so easily.
Silly me, you still know what you did to me.
You will carry that with you for the rest of your life, and I will cry about it for the rest of mine.
No one will believe me, you said.
Yes, I'm just a silly girl. But I still said no. You just chose to ignore me.
