My Mosaic

@Bow am sorry that you're already suffering, a month out from your upcoming trauma anniverary 😞

Am sending wishes that it's manageable and you can cope... 💜

trigger warning. Abuse.

Looking back on a time and a place

Seeing a child’s innocent face

Knowing that things aren’t as they seem

For inside she cries silent tears

Deep inside she is filled with pain

She feels dirty and filled with shame

Innocence lost at a young age

Locked away in a pain field cage

There is no freedom or escape

From fact that this child was

This child is sentence to eternity

Eternity locked away with all this shame

She can’t help but feel she was to blame

Even though commonsense says it wasn’t

She can’t help from having these thoughts

What ifs keep running through her mind

She keeps going back to those moments in time

If there isn’t something different she could’ve done Why didn’t she keep screaming or try to run

She kept froze to the spot

While the grown man did what he should not

Shame and fear made her keep silent

Kept her from telling someone of the violence

With every touch a part of her died

Now she is in a prison with no gates

Thank you @Bow for your meaningful words. I hope writing helps you to process your emotions and traumatic experiences.
