It never gets easier.... It just Changes

It never gets easier to hear.  It never gets easier to accept.  It never gets easier to understand why a man would RAPE a woman.

But when it happens to someone you know, and you know the victim, and you are in the seat she is in.  They tell you what he did to her, not by the words they say, but by the words they don't say.

Even when they don't say who it is, but you know.  And you know because you haven't seen her post, or your friends banter with her for days.  You know because your good friend sleeps at her house, and makes angry posts about Rape.  You just KNOW.

They wont confirm it, but they she is okay.  But that life will change now that the authorities are involved, and they know, and they are doing their jobs, but it will never be the same for her again.  She will never feel beautiful and sexy like she used too.  Her clothing will change, and she will hide herself away.  And she will feel like an object to be stolen and used, until she breaks.... and then what?

And then what?

I've been there right where she is now.

And I've dropped off the face of the Earth too.

I get it from her prospective.

But it NEVER gets easier to hear, but my prospective CHANGED with time... Will hers?
