Homeless

I thought I went for
my escape to a different home.
Far away from those horrors;
it was my only comfort zone.
Little as I was-
I saw parts of the
man's body, not
comprehending their
harm to my short-lived
bloom immediately or the
devastation of my beliefs
yet to come.
Never understood what
was wrong.... until after
the damage was long
complete and done.
