I've come before the court
to present my case-
the case in which he
left me there to die
in the frozen Winter Wonderland,
when the snow
covered the Earth
and white stained crimson red
from where he stabbed me
directly in the heart.
Maybe, Judge, you'll ask
why I didn't have the urge
to run away when things
started going downhill,
why I allowed this man to
mistreat me for as long as I did,
despite knowing who and what he is,
knowing that he is nothing more
than a monster lurking the shadows.
In debriefing, I present to you
the case that I was misled, abused,
and used for all the things that
he wanted from a woman,
but thought he would get away with it
if he chose me as his victim instead.
Let me state here clearly that this
was never about my life, which he never cared about,
but was instead all about him-
what he could get from me,
what he could take from me,
what he could drive me to be-
as well as how he could stay here,
how he could live with friends near,
how he could live without fear.
You see, Judge, this man is a parasite,
a life-sucking creature that left me dead
in the middle of winter's icy roads,
a body dropped off on the highway,
a pure victim of the crimes he's committed.
But somehow, someway,
he still has me convinced that it's
all my fault,
making me believe that if I hadn't
done this or done that,
maybe I would still be alive to tell the tale;
but that's the thing-I am alive,
and I'm here to tell my story.
Yet somehow he has me convinced
that I'm the one who should be put on trial.
