Favorite Quote:
"If you are going through Hell, keep going." -Winston Churchill


You wanted it

They say.

You wore those pants

That cling to your curves just so.

You asked for it

They say.

Told him you wanted to work with him,

Moved closer to his department,

And how could you expect him

Not to have those thoughts?

This is what happens

They say

When you wear make up and look older than your years.

This is your fault

They say

Now you pay the price alone.


The author's comments:

This is about being sexually harassed and being unable to really do anything about it because when your try you just get told it's your fault for things you did.
