Broken Trust

Sirken
I look above me at the blinding light
It makes my eyes burn and I close them tight
Shadows dance and I am frightened
Behind my eyelids the lights are brightened
All I can feel around me is danger
Coats they swarm around me, strangers
I wonder where have my protectors gone
Will they save me from this oblivion?
Deep voices speak words I can't understand
One tries to sweet-talk me, holding my hand
I want my body to be left alone
How is this happening, how can it be condoned?
My hands and feet are being tied
I cry out, this isn't right!
"Anaesthesia" only sends me shivering
My nude and vulnerable body lay quivering
Gloves are snapped and sharp tools draw near
Relentlessly deepening the depth of my fears
Ripping through my skin, my nerves, you take from me:
My hope, my trust, from this world leaves my security.
Was my body never really mine at all?
Pain surrounds me, my eyelids fall
I was perfect, so you said...
Now I'll never be the same again.
