He touched me there Told me not to say a thing Shut your mouth and do as you are told Threatened, I silenced myself, ruined. Silence and loneliness were my companions I couldn't tell my friends, family, or anyone My grades dropped and sadness set in I used drawings and clues to drop hints. Do not say a word resonated in my head If I ever say a word I might be dead Blame, weakness, and shame I endured I told them that I was okay to cover up the sores. I did what I was told and for many years used Until I became an adult and revealed my abuse Abuser, user, child molester Many years in jail for his pester For putting an innocent child's life in danger. Say something and let the truth be told It is too much of a burden for you to hold Tell someone you'll be relieved That others will help you, be bold, believe. Okay, I said it!
