She’s seven but she seduced me. It’s not my fault, she asked for it!
RAPED
Her guardians trusted me. I babysat her every day they went to work. It was convenient.
RAPED
She’s my girlfriend’s daughter, but she walks around the house in skimpy clothes. She practically begged for it
RAPED
I couldn’t help myself; her pigtails hung just enough just to arouse me. Low enough to let me know she still possessed foolery, but high enough that I understood she hasn’t reached puberty
RAPED
It was easy… Her parents didn’t care about her; she walked home every day by herself. I saved her
RAPED
He looked innocent enough. Something in my heart told me he wouldn’t tell
RAPED
His peers didn’t accept him. I was his only friend. I wanted to show him how much I really cared about him.
RAPED
He’s my nephew but I couldn’t control myself. I really tried not to; I didn’t want this to happen.
RAPED
Every day he mowed his lawn, he would take off his shirt. Something in the way his chest glistened in the sun aroused me
RAPED
He was too little to defend himself, now who would resist that?
RAPED

Never could they understand, the pain they inflicted
The souls they’ve crushed, the dreams they tormented.
They’re the people you trust; to watch your kids in your homes
The people who betray that same trust and before convicted, are gone.
They cry they’re the victim
Those innocent faces they just couldn’t resist
Those crazy thought in their heads are something they couldn’t dismiss.
Never did they think about the impact it might have on others
The screaming, hurting children; the sadden, distraught mothers.
They are the reason some homes get broken
They are the same people who made those children faces become sunken.
Those children are now victims
To this cruel world we all love.
But before making a decision to take someone’s innocent
Consult with the man above.

“Not my fault, trusted, begged, I couldn’t help myself, saved, he wouldn’t tell, I really cared, couldn’t control myself, aroused me, resist”
Parents… OPEN YOUR EYES. Not only should you protect your child from the Person who has been in and out of prison or convicted of being a rapist; protect them from your brother, sister, neighbor, husband, babysitter, and best friend.
