Why just why?

At 13 you were 16.

You abused my trust.
Alone in the house
No one there to help
Did I want this?
I didn’t know.
I was just a child,
I still am.
Still 3 whole years older
But now I’m strong.
If you try it again
I’ll scream
I’ll kick
I’ll hurt you.
I didn’t know what was going on.
I stayed home because u you said.
I pretended to be ill,
Even though was perfectly well
I was on top of the world.

Looking back I regret
Everything little thing
That happened.
I don’t want you out of my life.
It’s the past
Everyone has forgotten.

But not me

It’s still there,
Lurking at the back of my head
I want it to go. To banish
But it won’t.
I cry
I scream inside
You forced me.
I hated it.
You didn’t see what you were doing.
Why? I ask.
I could have stopped it
I could have said no,
I should have said no.

The past has gone,
Nothing can change it.

The present it now,
Happening this minute.

The future will be the present,
Which I can change…

I don’t want to tell anyone
It’s sexual abuse!
I can’t pull my self to tell someone.
Bad things can come out of it.
I don’t want you to go to jail.
After all you were and still are.

My brother!

At 16 you are 19.
