Haven.

She walked aimlessly on the empty streets at night.. no where to go, no one to see.. she walked in hope that she might end up somewhere safe. Some where away from the cruel world, from people, from men. Every time she glanced back into her past all she could see were monsters disguised as men. Her soul was filled with scars, each scar still hurt. They were all reminders of the days she was scared, the days when she felt unsafe. There were times when she wanted to chew them off her soul and then there were moments when she simply stopped fighting, trying to accept them as a part of her existence. Tired from the struggle, walking under open sky she tried to reason with herself one last time. Was she worth it all? did she deserve to be hurt?.. like a thousand times before she failed. Her body kept shrinking in the cold rainy night. Each tear she shed melted into the rain as it washed down her face. She was in search of haven but slowly she was losing hope. Each time the lightening struck her heart skipped a beat. She wanted to scream our of fear but her voice stayed tied down in her throat. Her legs finally gave up on her, forcing her to the ground. She lay on her back staring at the cloudy sky, she could see the thunder but its roar never reached her ears. Her time had finally come. She smiled as she realized, happy that she had finally found it. her haven. Some place she will be safe. There was no force that could make her want to stay or beg for more time. She was rather relieved that it was over. Without a second thought, she closed her eyes and gave herself away.
