Forced To Awaken

A happy day, glistening sun in our way

A beautiful event as the trees set to sway

Amidst the masses of a million heads

It felt like a safe path to tread

A ride full of laughter,glee and game

In my naive world, none to blame

Soon turned into a silent scream

what happened was not a dream

I hustled around in the hazy dark

Strange faces around me looking stark

I could not rest nor could I rebuke

Fun died down replaced with spook

I was ready to fight, I was set to yell

A new angst in me shot from hell

Like falling into a pit of shards

I took each stride with no guards

As I almost ran in frantic speed

Remorseless faces and lustful greed

Staring down at me with fiendish eyes

It was a horror with unspoken cries

An anxiety I had never felt before

Haunted my feminity from that day forth.

I lost something and gained another

Gone was my innocence and then came terror.
