Fooled

A night out,
full of dreams
insecure love,
made a fool
of me.
Blinded by trust,
you led me,
down this road,
of trickery.
Too many drinks,
Given to me.
The world starts spinning,
fooled,
you’d take care of me.
Eyes wide shut,
you said
you loved me.
Sweet dreams
my love,
sleep peacefully,
I’m here
for you
my love,
you laid
next to me.
Blackened dreams ,
numb to the touch.
Alcohol indulgence,
I couldn’t wake up.
The touch of
your kisses,
began to
warm me up.
Heart beating
faster,
I’m reminded of
your love.
Opened my eyes,
couldn’t believe
my sight.
Complete panic,
so abrupt!
Who are you?!
Not the man,
I love.
My body exposed,
lost were all
my clothes.
Darkened room,
I realize,
there are two.
This can’t be?!
We said, I do.
You watched him
rape me!!
How could you???!!!
The damage is done,
I’ll never trust.
Rest in piss,
my mind
forever fucked.

Powerful, tragic and evil! Dear goodness how did you manage to lay this out in such a visual way without losing what seems a breath. Amazed but admiring of your courage to write, your apparent defiance to speak out and leave your feelings behind you.. as you close your eyes, 'lay down your pen' yet.. carry your words near, far alternately when it all hits your being.. yet again. Sigh and a smattering of ..

Kudos, dear lady.

Wow! Sorry to hear that.
A traumatic experience; he betrayed you.
You became a victim.
Beware of alcohol and opportunistic men.
