katie's re-occurring nightmare

I had just fallen asleep.
Eyes moving in REM
Door creaks, startling my subconscious state
"Keep your eyes closed,
Maybe he won't try if he thinks you're sleeping."
I shut them hard, lashes to cheek,
Still he inches closer.
I feel his weight on the corner of the bed.
His fingers touch my toes.
Instantly I'm jolted by nausea.
His hands are moving quickly.
"Keep your eyes closed, just lay still."
I lay flat, lifeless, a dead fish,
Make it hard for him to move.
I feel his ribs and hips against mine.
The nauseous feeling is overwhelming now.
I can't help it; everything comes up.
"You stupid cunt, now he knows you're awake."

I feel my flesh burning
As he punishes me for getting sick.
At this point, the pain has turned to numbness-
No more acting; I was lifeless, a dead fish.
he slaps my bare skin once more
Before retying the drawstring of his flannel pajamas.
He pets my hair softly, as silent tears stream own my cheeks.
He drops a towel on my lifeless carcass;
I think it was for the vomit and blood.
He said, "Goodnight, Katie."
"Goodnight, Uncle Frank," I said before nestling back into my grave.
