Is There No Escape?

Is there no escape?
Naked and exposed.
Violated and abused.
Left to wither and die.
Bleeding.
Wounded.
Cold.
Terrified. Horrified.
I lie still.
Silent.
Alone.
The crowd watches...
In amazement, shock, and horror.
My innocence stolen. Taken.
Ripped away from me.
Mocked.
Laughed at.
I am their entertainment.
Pushed down.
Pressured.
Hands on me.
A public display.
Is there no escape?
Behind the Poem
Some nightmares exist beyond dreams. Sometimes dreams leave behind emotions that linger long after waking. This poem was inspired by one such dream — a haunting moment of silence, helplessness, and a crowd that only watched.
