This is an odd poem, so I'm hoping it's ok to make another odd comment. The ''beautiful thing'' line is kind of weak, but you did say you're having a hard time knowing the right thing to say. Your girlfriend gets raped, you may feel you don't know what to say, how to help; and that sexual anger, it is an odd thing to deal with. A horrible thing to deal with. . . . I assume you're implying the sexual jealousy you feel that's only going to make your girlfriend feel worse. Because it happened to her, not you. Though, it does feel like it happened to you.
I said this after reading the other feedback, I don't know if there's still a rule against that. Respond to the poem, not the feedback. But it does seem to me that the rapist did say he needed her, . . . and that makes it all the more horrid to deal with.
