I cant explain
what its like
to be touched
in places
you shouldn't be
as a child.
I try to say
to people
that they just
won't understand
unless they've
been through it.
they always
make some excuse
for understanding
and why I should
move on.
you don't know
if I'm going
to be ok
because you've
never been
through the stuff
that I have.

Horrific! No no one can ever know what another person has been through even if they have it is different for everyone. That is why some people get PTSD and others don't people are different and react different even to the same circumstances. This poem was hard to read and although I have worked with many abuse survivors each is different. A brave write.
Thank you very much for your kind words. It's so true, I was so angry for a while that I got PTSD and other people who had "been through worse" hadn't. Part of me felt like I was crazy and making it up. Your comment means so much to me, thank you.
People say lots of things, and then show what side they are talking out of the very next minute. Don’t listen to assholes. Only mouths should be talking to you! Well done ion this poem! 💯 truth! Sorry you have to endure methane when coming up for air. It makes the abuse worse, I know, even though I DO NOT know what it is like to be sexually assaulted as a child. Anyone who claims “to know” without experiencing, and tells you to move on, isn’t truly caring for you. They’re shielding themselves…at best. Again, well done my friend. 🌹👏 You are a beautiful soul, wise, and extremely talented! Glad our paths crossed.
