Nothing (Poem)

Looking in the mirror 

I see nothing 

Looking out the window 

I see nothing 

Looking at the world 

I see nothing 

I see nothing because of you 

The man who forced him self apon me

Who stole my innocence 

The blood poured 

From when my purity was stolen 

The scars I now bare 

To fight back your monstrosity 

But I am seen as nothing 

By no court of law 

For your disgrace is justified 

Because I was not a “victim”

I “had it coming”

Because the clothing on my back

For the way “I asked for it”

Or I didn’t say NO

I wore a sweater to keep me warm

I smiled to be polite 

I didn’t say no because you held my mouth shut

But no I am still nothing 

Because I see you walking free

And will always be nothing because 

Rape in this country is just a joke
