nine years oldA Poem by I am renee
Well my story begins at the age of five
"I hit my head in the bathtub because I was unattended" I suffered a traumatic brain injury that caused me to forget things My mom taught me things over again as any mother would and it took more time than expected I forgot how to spell and even my own name When I turned nine my brother walked me to school until one day he was mad at me and he decided to walk with his friends "that day I still remember clearly" I was walking alone and a guy in all black was walking behind "I was scared and nervous so I started to speed walk a little" He ran after me and a white van pulled up beside us "these group of men pulled me inside" They had their way It seemed like hours as my screams for help grew silent "after they were done they threw me out the van I was raped And home was to far so I ran to school and told a teacher Because of my brain injury I couldn't give much detail "he's still out there probably doing the same thing he did to me to other kids" The police never caught him As much as I've tried to remember back then about what those men did to me "they're still not caught but I have to keep my head high" I was raped when I was nine © 2014 I am renee |
