This isn't really a poem, but i didn't know were to post it...so i put it here.


When I was eighteen
I was in love.
Little did I know
the evil lurking above.

You got me alone
one dark misty day.
I tried to struggle
but you got ur way.

I tried to tell others
of your assault.
Yet they all blamed me
and said it was my fault.

You say not to tell
for if I do.
You'll do it again
and bid my life ado.

Noone cares
that's what i say.
Why should they care
it wasn't them that day.


People say
their against rape.
Yet when it happens
they offer no escape.

What happened to me
has hurt me so.
But will I ever forget
the answer is NO!!!!!


I know this isn't very good, but it's the best I could do



 To be or not to be...that is the question.[hamlet]

This WAS very good. I hope you are doing better. Try your best to stay strong sweetie. Some people are just stubborn jerks, don't pay any attention to them.

This was an excellent poem chic, it illustrates the pain and difficulty in dealing with this situation. If you ever want to talk, you have my ICQ. I cant offer much in the way of advice, but I am here if you just need to talk.
I think your sister is right about the title.

Who told you that this wasn't a poem? It had a rhyme scheme, meter, and flowed very well. I think this was wonderfully written and the title "NO" suits it very well. Great job.
