Rise Above
As a kid, I roamed the vast expanse of the internet
Exploring, learning, connecting with others
Not realizing the danger lurking in the shadows
Of being groomed online by predators in disguise
Innocent and naïve, I fell into their trap
Their sweet words and promises of friendship and love
Leading me down a dark and dangerous path
Where trust was shattered and innocence lost
I was groomed online, a victim of deception
Manipulated and exploited for their own gain
But I refuse to let their darkness define me
I will not be a silent victim of their crimes,
Of their depravity and immorality.
