The stitches tear apart

They fall to the ground like rocks

Thump

Thump

I feel lighter

Faster

Powerful

Invincible

Untouchable

“Me: let me tell you about it”

A party, a girl, a god

Together

Bliss, beauty, love

Thought the girl

Girl, body, party,

Thought the god

lust won

Accompanied by strength

Muffled screams

No one ever heard

They never stopped even when he did

Cops could help she thought

But the hand over her mouth

Was still there

Even though it was lost in the crowd

Silence

What to say

To late sirens were near

Gone home

Hate from all others engulfed her

A beast

Was masked with the face of a god

Mr. Teacher: (stands in stunned silence)

Moments later moves to his desk

Dials his phone

Roaring sirens approach

Help finally comes to her aid
