Curled up in blankets, snuggled against the wall.
She took her hand, put it in my pants.
I moved, I kicked, but still she thought I was asleep.
I didn't know what to do. How could you? I trusted you!
Another day, another night. This time you put your face in mine.
When I asked you, you smiled and laughed, said "Why would I do that?"
But I denied. How could anyone do such a thing to her "best friend"?
You blasted away my self-esteem, took my soul, crushed my dreams.
Another month, another few nights.
While you touched, I cried and cried.
Silent tears, so you wouldn't hear.
Kicking, squirming;
But still you thought I was asleep.
Molested By Best Friend
She Thought I Was Asleep
