Some Men Who Really Can't Call Themselves Men

Do what I must,
To keep him happy,
To please him,
Feed his hunger,

Don’t mess up,
Don’t flinch,
Let him touch me,
Smile now,

Hold back your tears,
It’s just once,
Right?
Maybe just once

Thank you for your support. This supposed incident was in my childhood and I just now have the courage to speak up about it, even if it is to a handful of strangers.
