Hello all, here.
Was lost in thought today about sexual violence, I imagined a scenario where a lady was being violated, but decided to fight for herself instead of shying away. This has been put down in a poem/story like manner. hope you enjoy it.
He hit me
He hit me once
He hit me twice
Then it became a Habit
He'd Use my head as a hammer
He'd use my body as a punching bag
He hit me so bad, I lost them
My children, my light in darkness
I was his slave
I was his cook
I was his whore
I was his stress relief bag
I lost my beauty
Lost my dignity,my pride
My esteem was lost as well
My friends couldn't recognise me
I was tired
But I knew leaving wasn't an option
Yet, I wanted total freedom
And I had one choice only
I planned carefully
I waited patiently
Until he lost his job
And I found an opening
I shot him
Straight in the head
And put the gun in his hand
It was a perfect suicide
I cried like a widow
Yet laughed like a newly we'd
No one suspected me
I was the loving unfortunate wife
But he was never dead
He never was
But he was in a vegetative state
That worked for me
And like a lunatic
I took good care of him
Laughed at him in camera
But took care of him
I was in love with my vegetative husband
I was the loving wife
Wife of the year
One people looked up to
And when one day he finally spoke
"You shot me"
He breathed his last, and I was crowned the poor loving wife
One of the 50 most influential widows
I think he wished he hadn't spoken
Wished he never hit me
Wished he never met me
But the dead have no wishes, or do they?
N/B: Vegetative = paralysed
Men please stop female violence. It doesn't pay to hit a woman.
