Raped By Love Poem by Gugu Kourtney Zulu

Walking on the sidewalk
Alone
Thoughts of my dreams
Fill the brain
I hear no sounds
I see nothing but
The paving I walk on

'Do not walk here' they say
'Its dangerous' they preach
I am Zulu
I am a stallian
So I walk on

I feel metal
I see a man
I hear threats
I taste hs body
I smell trouble

He is inside
My clothes ripped apart
I feel thrusts
I am defenseless
I can't breathe
I am weak

Man is done
Man leaves
I get dressed
Run home
Fearful to hear the words
'I told you so'
Ashamed
I want to die

To walk is impossible
To forget is impossible
To trust is impossible
I got raped
I will never walk there again
I learnt
I will teach

I was raped
Raped
