Where do I begin?
When it seems like
We will never ever win
How do I explain
That every single day
I am cowering
From your pain
That my comfort is
In my space
Because they won’t
Ever understand
That something that
Happened once
13 years ago
Can still affect you
Every single day
How do I explain
That every single day
Your words that you said
Ring out in my head
“That’s nice”, “That’s nice”, “That’s nice”
Tell me how nice
That really is
How do I explain
That I just can’t
Trust anybody fully
When you abused
My trust
All those years ago
I was just a child
And they tell you
So much worse
Can happen
So much worse
And they think
It will make you
Feel better
But in reality
It only makes it
So much worse
Because if it happened
Once
It can happen
Again
And this time
It will be worse
