    You Raped My Mind

    It haunts me still
    the violence of the dream
    so unreal, and yet so
    inescapable.

    It daunts me to recall
    the hard metallic taste
    that I cannot alleviate
    from my mind.

    It was something
    raw and impure
    passionless
    and yet there was

    I'm so in love with this poem I feel like reading it over and over again.

    LOVE IT ALLAH ALMIGHTY GAVE THIS PERSON WICKED SKILLS ^_^
