The Game I Hate

The Game I Hate

A Poem by NotGoodEnough

There's this game
The game I hate.
He wants me to play,
For I am his bait.

He tells me it's okay
To play his game.
For my despair,
I am to blame.

He says if I disobey,
He'll make the game hurt.
I don't want to hurt,
So I lift up my skirt.

He says it's okay
If he touches me.
He told me
I have to agree.

I hate when
He touches me there.
It's not right,
It's too much to bare.

But I have to keep quiet,
Or he'll play with another.
I don't want him to,
So I do like before.

I lay down,
So he can have fun.
I try to get away,
But he reaches for the gun.

When he's done,
I run to my room and cry.
Right now all I want
Is to just die.

Then I think,
What if he were dead?
I could take his gun,
And shoot him in the head.

Maybe I could
Finally think straight.
Maybe then I wont have to play
The game I hate.

While tragic in content, I will focus on the writing and not the atrocity...

Beautiful. This is a beautiful piece, in its way.

It held my focus. It lured a very base emotion out of my being.

The source of inspiration is terrible, but the way you've captured it, and nor control it with these words, is brilliant.

Bravo!

Thank you for this submission

Powerful and strong words. You took the reader to place of the hated place. Made the place come alive and the anger known by the reader. I did like the ending. Sometime the gun can be transfer and the prey become the predator. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.
