Its Time'

Its time now..! To become survivors you must stand.!Thank
God for putting Tim Ballard in contact with those
Who needed to be released.! And there was a reason
For that ! For its so much harder for abused people.!
To get their minds out of (flashbacks) 
And self denigration, to beleive they
Can; stand strong.' To not always be burying the
Horrors.! it took an unbattered well ajusted person
Tim Ballard, who in his revulsion at child abuse fought
To support their humanity..Now its up to us survivors
Stand up get up crawl.! to the nearest support and stand.'
If thats what ì takes.? but open your mouths at all costs
Come forward.' you are needed to support these real
Heroes.'

A difference can be achieved Heidi' I saw a lady who had the Right motives she was mentioning the p-word for child Abusers unknowingly.' Fair enough.' But to my great joy she Was being bleeped out ' so my poem has gotten traction Heidi Even today I spoke to a stranger and he said that word is missused.' Praise the Lord.)
