Hide And Seek (trigger warning)
by She_Writes
Something felt wrong
I told you no
But you were so strong
I had no choice
I was only five years old
When all this began
How could you be so cold
You were supposed to protect me
Let’s play a game; hide and seek
I was to hide
I wasn’t to speak
You always found me
Hunted me like prey
Ripped off my clothes
As I began to pray
Clenching my eyes
Singing songs in my brain
Keeping my mouth shut
Pretending not to feel any pain
To scared to do anything more
For years you abused me
Until one day you were caught
I was finally free
Or so I thought
The memories of what you’ve done
Haunt me every time darkness replaces the sun
