Free verse № 154096
My Courtney
I have a secret that I hold deep inside
No matter how far I go and how hard I try
I constantly feel on display
The stares I get as I walk by
With every whisper I hear, an internal sigh
And I only wish I could turn away
Surrounded by few who could understand rape
I find only one to whom my secrets escape
As time goes by bonds build that won't break
I have her by my side through every mistake
and every night as I lie in bed
I thank God for my dearest friend...
