Mystical
Magical
Stub your ankle on pine
Feels like you spiked your spine
Nerves striking your system
Never ever friends with PTSD
Yet brother decides to try to help
Hands latching onto you
It feels familiar
You were on stage
Never public
Had your whole body to sell
Grabbing
Squishing
Hands leeching onto your body
Feeling your privates
You were only nine for God sake!
No matter how many times you kept saying "stop!"
Or "no!"
You felt hands on you
You had no control
Just pure grips
Just pure uncomfortableness
Yet, you'd never think that PTSD would kick in the ***
After four years, did you seriously think you'd not have PTSD?
Loud sounds trigger
Hands linger

All you can feel is you sinking
Heaving breathing
Panicked
You can't breathe
You feel like exploding
You can't breathe
You can't breathe
You're crying like hell

.
.
.
You can't breathe?
Don't you remember
How your family member
Would choke you, nearly making you pass out?
Can't you feel their hands?
How their thumbs limited your airway
How their thumbs made your throat's airway smaller!

Look at you!
You seem so distressed!
I'm not going to be here to listen to you!
No one is!
You're all alone on this problem!
No one would care anyways
