Rape

Sitting on the beach
Building castles in the sand
My mind travels back in time
As a child I roamed this beach
Throwing stones into the sea

Building castles in the sand
King and princess dancing in my head
Walking down red carpet stairways
Into my lovers arms
Dancing in rose filled gardens
Romance is in the air

Childish dreams, I now know
As my cut and bruised body
Lays upon the sand
Innocence taken from me
I sit building castles in the sand

No one will ever want me
Torn and scared as I am
There is hatred for all men
Building deep within me
A desire to strike back
With gun in hand
As I sit building
Castles in the sand
