Who am I? For this, I don’t know anymore.
But I am a woman who refuses to remain silent, that’s for sure.
I was never one to back down in defeat
But the extent of your all-encompassing deceit,
I am powerless to educe justice for the crime that occurred.
And how could I, when it is word against word?
You had me in your sights all night from the start.
You groomed me all evening, being sneaky and impart.
What kind of justice system do we have?
What type of world do we live in?
Where the guilty are immediately viewed as unassailable,
And the victim’s indictable?
I lose countless hours every day and night over these notions.
This is not me, how I am, or how my brain typically functions.
Who am I?
Who am I becoming?
Right now, I am dark, decaying, drained, and drowning.
I hope I will evolve into someone more triumphing.
