Bleeding physically, emotionally, psychologically

Bleeding from that rape, from that abusive relationship,

From that abusive marriage, from that prison experience

From what they did that I cannot speak up about

How can I? they pressed my mouth down.

Society pressed my mouth shut.

And so here I was losing blood day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year.

I saw the best Doctors, went to the best hospitals
