18 Years Ago

i.

18 years ago

you touched me

16 years ago

you stopped

14 years ago

I finally told on you

Too late

was all I heard

 

ii.

13 years

until I willingly was touched

1 more

till I was calm

I'm still waiting for a time

when I can truly let him love me

 

iii.

I never did confront you

for those 18 years of pain

And the years that are to follow

until I can really let someone in
