misstree there was no possible way for me to be more explicit
in saying NO.
i explained as best i could.
how it hurt. how it broke trust.
i did everything short of telling you
how every breached personal space,
every uninvited advance, is a small rape.

why would you,
with wounds not even sealed,
reach that way
to such a thing
as i have not yet even owned?
reach for the king's scepter
before he has siezed it
and you are only violating properness,
and not the line i have all but bled to mark,
the one that says i am hunted,
that i cannot let guard down.

i would have beaten you with it,
if you had been an inch more forward.

i cannot yet see past my rage.
