She Can't Speak
She can't speak
Ever since he broke the law of morality, integrity
The six inch rule- the rule of you don't touch what doesn't belong to you rightfully
He jiggled the lock of her purity with a skeleton key of
I love you
Though access was never granted, she never agreed
He broke what was between her femurs and now
She can't speak
When she tries to speak, her words come out halting like a toddler who is just learning how to walk
Talking for her is as difficult as driving a stick shift when you've not even gotten a permit
She tries to speak and her words are twisted like the many shoestring lengths of a 12 foot long Twizzler
They don't wait to hear her, hear her tangled telephone wire babblings of a tongue needing an ear
Not speech therapy, but an ear to hear her
An open passageway to clear her thoughts
She needs to tell her story, she wants to speak so others can learn from history, she longs to speak and banish the fightening and gory
He glories in the victory of taking her voice
He continues to force her open cuz she can't use her voice
There's no-one patient enough to hear her, no-one she can trust, she can't put it on paper, and she can't use her voice
Her voice: the most powerful part of her being
She doesn't see how she can fight this
Without even speaking
