Stretch REALLY hard and maybe you'll get me

She speaks her Truth

Unapologetically

There She stood

Barely out of childhood

Hear her speak

Look around

It's justice she (they) seek(s) (#metoo)

Her innocence taken by force

Would there be any recourse?

She felt unlovable and unwanted

Numb is all she could be

Not knowing she was allowed to be Angry

Feeling lost and betrayed

They put her Truth to the test

The Truth they tried to minimize

She was terrified

Little did they realize

She would insist he be locked up

She had become family gossip

When the Truth 

she did say

She lost everyone

 there was no one left

Family had all turned away

They claimed 'false allegations'

Her ground she stood

Slowly loosing her life

Being misunderstood

Justice for a crime he did commit

To re-victimize her 

Was absolute bullsh##!!

There she stood

Speaking her Truth

Knowing she'd loose everything

She had no choice 

but to roll the dice

Lord knows

She'd already paid 

with the ultimate price

In more ways then one

But for Her

She was labeled

 'Victim #8' 

not the only one
