If your body is a temple
If your body
is a temple
I have violated
you.
Beaten to the
ground.
Grabbed by
rough hands.
Your innermost
sanctum
torn open
by force.
I saw you
writhing in
agony.
I heard your
screams of
pain.
Yet...
I turned my
back on
you.
From far away
I watched.
Your naked body
washed by rain.
The blood was
gone.
You cried no
more.
In shame
I walked
away.

Wow, this poem is very painful to read when you know what it's like to be the other person. Very well written, and I just love it.
