I admitted
From
A young age
That I..
Well, hold
On.
Backstory-
My uncle (yes this is going semi
Where
You
Think
It will)...
Sold me to his neighbor.
I remember the hair.
And the nails.
And hiding
Behind
The recliner.
I remember the desperation.
I remember
Saying
“I can dress myself”
But someone else
dressed me anyway.
I remember
My parents not believing
My aunt
Singing/saying
“I was only gone
FIFTEEN
minutes.”
When he went to jail
Almost
20
YEARS
later....
For
assaulting
a
minor.
I knew
it happened.
I admitted
From
A young age
That I could
****
Someone.
If
I had my choice
It would be
HIM
