Analysis of Please stop

Rain- 1996 (Ontario)



Please stop. There’s too much pain. I can’t escape. I scream in agony; you hurt me more. You hurt me until I am gone.
You throw me to the ground and beat me until I cry blood. You beat my little body until I am a corpse. You cut into my flesh and break my bones. This is the only way they will see who you are and what I’ve become. After all, you don’t have a choice.
