Sexual Abuse

The day you said it was okay
to do the things you did
was the day I closed my heart
then ran away and hid.

You said it was ok
you said it was alright
but then I grew up
and then I knew you lied.

Mother please help mother I need you here
if only I could tell you
but there is no need to share
for if I did I’d fear you wouldn’t care.

Now I know it’s over
now I know its done
all I fear now
is what he could have done.
