dirty whore

I need to wash your hands from my wrists
From my thighs, from my neck.
To clean your sweat from my skin
Wipe away the blood dripping down my legs
I put in the plug in and turn on the taps.
I have to stop remembering
To stop remembering your skin
And your smell and your eyes
And the way you forced me to look at you
I turn off the light and unbutton my shirt.
My hands go over the lumps in my skin
Bruises already forming where you threw me into the wall
Where you held me to the floor
And where you forced my thighs apart
I slip off my jeans and climb over the edge of the bath
The water is dark, the room is dark.
I can't see my own body slide into the water
But I can still see your face so close to mine.
This water is burning hot but it can not burn you from my skin
And it cannot match the heat of your breath on my neck.
Or the searing pain of you thrusting yourself inside me
I scrape the layers of blood and tears and sweat from myself and stand.
I stumble out, my head swimming
Wrap a towel around me and head for bed.
Lie down and pick up the small brown box
Take one pill, pink and small.
Swallow and relax
Drift into dreamless sleep.
Spent an hour in the bath
Scrubbed my body til it was raw
But still feel like a dirty whore

Wow. the pain i read gave me chills. I can't imagine what you went through writing it. I can't say I relate, but I can say I'm here for you.
