When I Was Touched Poetry Lyrics

I Always Had A Wall Around Me

To Protect Myself From Unknown Creatures

Though The Eyes That Scan My Body

Always Had Some Known Features. . .

Carrying An Over full Bag In The Bus

I Saved Myself From Strangers

Or Wearing Oversized Shirts

Were Ways To Protect Myself From The Worse. . .

That Day Coming Down The Stairs

He Helped Me And Hugged Me Tight

He Kissed My Lips And I Trembled With Fright

I Wish I Could Run But I Lost My Sight. . .

I Was 10. . .

I Was 10 And He Was 70

I Walked Bare Feet That Day On A Hot Empty Street. . .

Then I Was 14 And I Love To Skate

I Wish I Could Speed Through The Ring

But I Was Left In A Daze

Trying To Balance Myself

I Felt Someone Trying To Lift Me

I Felt Some Hands On My Thighs

I Wish I Could Scream

But My Lungs Failed Me

I Was 14 And He Was 46

He Was My Coach

And He Had To Teach. . .

Coming Back From College

I Got Late That Day

It Was Raining So Heavily And I Could Just Pray

That My Parents Don't Panic I Took A Rick

As I Got Out In Front Of The Gate

I Felt A Prick. . .

The Rickshaw Puller Put His Hand On My Tiny Breast

I Felt Now How Now I Wish I Could Cut His Neck

As I Ran Inside To The Shower I Kept Scrubbing Myself

To Get Rid Of That Touch

And Again I Blamed Myself. . .

Now It Was A Summer Break

We Were Happy To Be Away

And I Could Play With My Cousins All Through The Day

After Hours Of Fun I Ran Inside To The Bed

And Crashed To Get An Afternoon Nap. . .

But As I Shut My Eyes To Sleep

I Felt Some Hands Moving Under My Skirt

But For God's Sake You're My Uncle

I Wish I Could Say Go No Further

But I Didn't. . .

I Just Shut My Eyes

I Was 16 And He Was 50. . .

Whenever We're Ever Molested And Touched

By People Known Unknown Or People I Could Trust

I Wish I Could Scream

Tell Someone That My Trust Was Breached. . .

But I Did None As I Was Less

Or Just A Teen

My Uncles My Teachers Or Strangers

Could I Ask You This. . ?

What Made You Think

That You Could Touch Me Or Feel Me

Before Doing This Did You Even Think. . ?

When You Touch Someone So Young

You're Hurting Them For Life

With Wounds That Never Heal

And Leaving Them With Fright

Being Touched Or Held Too Close. . .

Because It Takes Years To Know The Difference

Between Being Molested And Loved. . .

And I Still Need An Answer. . .

Why I Was Touched. . ?
