Part I

Part One

They locked me in a white room and called it treatment.

They strapped me to steel and called it care.

Dr. Aris thinks pain is procedure.

He thinks control is medicine.

He thinks I’ll learn to stay quiet.

This is where monsters wear lab coats.

This is where girls are kept, stitched, and owned.

I don’t break.

I don’t submit.

I wait.
