He’ll never know how much he hurt me, how much I cry.
I place a smile on my face, but sometimes it’s just a disguise.
Flashbacks of that night come and go even as the months pass by,
And still I can’t help but think why.
He’ll never know that he took the only thing I’ve ever wanted to save,
The only thing that’s ever truly been mine.
But he took my innocence in a giant tidal wave,
And I’m left here wondering how can I be brave?
He’ll never know that it is myself I blame,
Not knowing what my finally submitting really means.
I constantly replay my pleas in shame,
Wondering if he even remembers my name.
He’ll never know how he’s made me stronger
How through pain I’ve grown.
I just hope that one-day,
I won’t have to think of him any longer.
