When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not looking for your sympathy
I am telling you my forced label
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not saying it is all men
I am saying it was all men I knew
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not looking for the blame game situation
I am stating blame the men who did it
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not looking for your pity
I am stating look at what society did to me
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not looking for your opinions
I am stating rape culture is real
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not looking for your judgements
I am saying have some compassion
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am saying I did not survive the same way others did
I am saying I have my own individual story
When I say I am a rape survivor
I am not stating that I am weak
I am stating that I survived
