The man who raped me

I realised today
that I don't know the face
of the man who raped me.

what if I
were to spot with eye,
the man who raped me.

I who not know
the face, the foe;
The man who raped me.

I was so young,
too little and dumb,
to know the man who raped me.

He could live near here;
the face to fear;
the man who raped me.
