"Words of My Life"

The Wound
**Warning: Material May Trigger**

 
I used to play with my friends 
Then the childhood ended 
A hand touched me
It was his
I don't know what the problem is 
I tried to give the response 
But that little girl died at once 
I didn't want to obey
But I wasn't strong enough to get away 
I pretended it wasn't happening 
It was a reoccurring thing 
Time and time again 
I don't know where I was or when 
All I can see is him
That hurt will never grow dim
I got help--- but time had passed 
I got help at last
Telling my family was no use 
They didn't believe I was abused 
They can all depart
But I know the truth----- the wound’s in my heart
