Walk With You

Grief
|
Love me, my eyes have turned to stone for you.
Cold towards the many that crave me.
I have given myself to you
While distastefully eyeing the others with disgust,
almost as if to taunt them
"You can't have me! You can't have me!"
and I gasp,
my heart clutched,
my stone eyes shattering like glass
it's a modern day rape.
They try to take me,
when I don't belong to them.
My soul bleeds in protest.
A scream escapes my lips.
I can't escape, I am drunk
and my wrists are bound with rope.
I cry out,
"Unclench your fist, so tightly strung around my heart!"
I have lain in poison, in suffocation
to remain within your reach, your touch, lover.
but these men with their excuses of lust, of dominance
tear me apart before you
like nothing but a photo, worn away with time
can't you see my eyes?
Hand in hand,
I still walk with you.

| This is a very good poem. We women are not property of men and we got to show them this! Great Job! |
