Only ten years old
Once I dreamed something
that repelled me and I could not touch you
and I could not shake off this dirty and wrong feeling.
How long was it before I pushed that dream(memory) away?
You had wrapped me in your arms, as a mother should,
but instead you raped your daughter in the only way a woman can rape a woman.
And I awoke with my body reacting and pulsing and sweating.
Do you know what fear it gave me to dream such a dream(but it wasn't a dream) that left me wondering what kind of creature I was.
But now I know the truth that you had betrayed me,
I was only ten, how could you?
Sometimes I'm afraid to fall asleep, afraid of those strange dreams.
But I'm mostly afraid of the humans who may prey on me as I sleep and make me dream such dreams.
