If I had been there

Is there really a point to being here,
What’s the point?,
What’s the fear?,
If I only knew,
How to help my friend,
She wouldn’t be there,
Well I guess here,
In the hospital,
With a babe in her arms,
If I hadn’t let her sip some,
She would have thought strait,
She would have hidden in her cape,
Not holding a babe from an unfortunate rape!.
It’s all my fault.

    your poem makes me think of my poor poor friend,
    oh how i miss her.
    she was raped only it killed her,
    she wasnt so lucky as your friend.

    Omg, that's like so so sad. i can only imagine your pain.
    You see my Grandma was raped also. But you see, she decided that she wasnt ever gonna love a man again,
    So she is now a lesbo

    The exclamation point seems out of place; if you want it to be dramatic, don't rhyme rape with cape. Your friend should have had an abortion. Did you give her GHB, or tranquilizer? Straits spelled straight. Is she still your friend? Its not your fault unless you raped her, or you watched and didn't do anything about it.

    i read your poem and i liked it at least you know you
    did somthing wrong i was 12 and i went to a party
    with my friend and she let her boyfriend rape me so
    i kno how your friend must have been feeling but
    it's worse for me because my friend wont admit that
    she gave me anything and she says i wanted it when
    i know i didn’t and another kid sed i screamed know
    so i bet your friend is lucky to have you as a friend at
    least you admitt when you screw up

    I love your poem. And I know what its like to be raped. I was raped in by my towns football field. I screamed and a man sitting on his porch saw me running. Instead of helping me, he went inside and turned out the lights. I was caught, dragged into the woods, and raped. No one did anything, no one helped me. I had just turned fourteen. I didn’t say anything until i was sixteen, to my mom who blames me for it. don’t blame yourself when this happens to your friends. Just be there for them. My friends are the onyl people who pulled me through. I love them for that.
