"True Story of Rape"
This testimony was just recently sent to Realistic Poetry International! We hope it inspires someone else.
Suffering the harsh and sadistic effects of rape has left many women and men broken, confused, and neglected, and according to the Department of Justice, at least 300,000 people are raped every year, 54 percent of rapes go unreported, and 15 percent of sexual assault and rape victims are under the age of 12. 3 percent of men have been raped and 97 percent of rapists are never incarcerated. These are only a few of the facts pertaining to rape and sexual assault. Such a brutal and inhumane crime should never be tolerated and through courage, resilience, and an unbreakable soul, this beautiful brave woman sharing her real life testimony through poetry is proof that we are survivors and can use our voices and testimonies as an effective way to help others stand up for what is right!
