My eyes are red.
My cheeks wet.
No matter how I try,
The most romantic day of the year
Has been ruined;
All because
I said no
To something that
Happened anyway.
And though I try,
It feels like yesterday
Instead of eight years ago
I try to be strong.
When people ask
If I am ok,
But no matter how I try,
They know.
They know that one seemingly terrifying act
Has affected me forever
Never allowing me to feel the same
About Valentine’s Day
Again.

I just want to through it out there that the 2 people below me had the stones to critisize a rape victim. now, to you, silverjade, out of curiosity, how old are you? 8 years ago... I assume the guy was older than you. sorry if that's too personal for you. Psychoanalasis is kinda my thing

Not very good rhythm. Nice try though. 2

It sounds too much like you're simply talking. Not enough poetic style.
