Poem

could have, should have, but i didn’t

could have said no, should have said no, but i was 7, and 8, and 9. i feel guilt for something i had no control of, i was only 7, and 8, and 9. i had 3 years to say something yet i didn’t. i wish i did. i fear intimacy, i fear touch, i fear her. could have said no, should have said no, i wish i said no. but i was 7, and 8, and 9 only a child who was embarrassed they let this happen to them. i am now 16, realizing it was not and never was my fault.

Just because you didn’t say no didn’t make it right; I couldn’t either. Sometimes, we don’t fight or flight; we freeze. As for “her,” she doesn’t deserve life. It’s a bold statement, but I believe that anyone who does that, whether or not they do it to a child should not be in society. They should live loveless lives and die. You are SO strong, and it’s not your fault. You were so young. Take care <3
