No Where to Hide - June 1995

She's just a girl, 
frightened and scared. 
There is no where to hide that he can't find. 
No place to go 
where she can feel safe. 
She runs, but she knows where ever 
she goes, he will be there. 
Invading her thoughts, tormenting her dreams. 
When she closes her eyes, 
he is there, touching her, 
his breath on her skin, making her 
shiver. 
She's alone. No one can 
help her. Nothing 
can take away her pain, her shame
nor her sorrow. 
She's just a girl, barely fourteen. 
She remembers, 
she dreams and there is no escape. 
As the years go by and when the memory 
doesn't fade, she will know. 
She will never 
be free. He will always be there 
always a memory in her mind. 
The demon in her dreams. 
She can't run, 
she can't hide and there is no 
safe heaven 
for the girl who fears the one 
thing she can't see. 
The scars are there, emotional and physical. 
The bruises are barely gone
but not forgotten. Their mark on her heart and her 
mind. 
Forever changing the girl she would have been.
