I Am a Child Abuse Survivor
It took a long time, to realize the shame was not mine,
no it's not my shame i am not to blame i had no choice and not voice to speak out about the atrocities done to me
in my youth now I speak my truth no longer do I have fear I grow stronger but the truth few want to hear,
it's hell when you're male and they tell you grow up and be a man they don't even try to understand
if only they did they would know I am a man but kinda still a kid I have to endure through it knowing there is no cute for it and I can't undo it.
so press on one day at a time with hole in my heart and a stigma on my mind.
One day the pain will all go away but that day is to far away someone I trusted commited a huge injustice and took something from me I can never get back now please excuse me while I have a panic attack.
