Used
TW: Sexual manipulation
When you touch me
I feel the
remnants of him on my skin
When you
trace your finger along my inner thigh
I not only
feel you
But I feel
him as well
When you
try just a little longer to get what you want from me
I freeze
I feel used
Like I am only
good for one thing in your eyes
I wonder
Do you even
know me as a person?
What I like?
What my
favourite TV show is?
What kind
of breakfast I like in the morning?
Sex to me
is combined with manipulation
Men trying
to crush my will and take from me
It takes a
lot of time for me to open up and then still
In a second
The trust is
gone
I comply in
fear
Of what
might be to come if I do not
When you
trace your finger along my naked skin
I not only
feel you
But I feel
him as well
You try
I freeze
Powerful words, they cut deep.
