She Still Does
She still leaves a light on
checks the closet door
looks under the bed
She still leaves the radio on
trying to mask noises
still straining to hear steps
She still hides under the covers
scared to breathe
choking on her fear
She still feels dirty
can't wash off his smell
unable to scrub his touch away
checks the closet door
looks under the bed
She still leaves the radio on
trying to mask noises
still straining to hear steps
She still hides under the covers
scared to breathe
choking on her fear
She still feels dirty
can't wash off his smell
unable to scrub his touch away
