TRIGGER WARNING

**TRIGGER WARNING**This blog contains subject matter that could very well be triggering for some as it covers childhood sexual abuse and rape culture. My intention is to raise awareness and encourage other victims to let their voices be heard, NOT to offend, attention-seek, name call, blame or point fingers.

Thanks for taking the time to listen to my story.

Work Harder Girl

To fight to be my own.
To work 45 hours a week;
not think of child molestation during the work week.
Stay asleep long enough to just taste your dreams,
but never staying to find the escape in sleep.

I wonder when its worth it
with the government and the state taking out its bite;
what we really all work for
and if its ever enough.

well i know since my wages once came from
under the table trade offs and buy offs.
but what are you really thinking or even feeling at all?
that friendship and fights can be solved in numerals and decimals.
change and dollar bills,
new clothes and maybe your first tattoo

i don't really fucking know
all i know if yes it sucks to work hard
but if you're gonna play hard you shouldn't be
playing on other's emotions and dimes.
