A year ago today, <br />I died a tragic death. <br />I was beaten and drugged, <br />Slammed down on a mattress, <br />Stripped in shame, <br />And locked within a room <br />So everyone could see inside. <br /> <br />As I struggled to maintain consciousness, <br />I could hear them giggling <br />And started to feel the humiliation, <br />The shame that they cast out upon me. <br /> <br />I was left there for days <br />With no food nor water. <br /> <br />I struggled to survive. <br /> <br />On the 7th day they opened the door <br />And dragged my body outside. <br /> <br />When the days tolled 11, <br />My body was finally <br />Released from captivity <br />For I died on day three.<br /><br />A.M.
