Do you want to hear
What happened to me?
Are you prepared
for brutal honesty?
Skeletons in the closet,
risking transparency.
Revealing myself now
terrifies me.
Have I forgiven them? so important to you; And fears for my mother, Did he hit her too? Your conflicted emotions? not my responsibility. Holding myself takes all my energy.
Do you want to know what my father did to me? He took my life. I lived in fear, endlessly running to survive, stay one step ahead; mercilessly driven, no wonder I fled.
Who would believe it? a pillar of the community. Fake family façade, a prison of secrecy. Don't speak ill of the dead, but thankful he died. After sexual abuse it’s the victims that hide.
