He walked up the steps…
And stumbled inside…
Into the room at the top…
Where the memory resides…
Of his pure innocence…
Cruelly ripped away…
On a dark summer night…
After a long hot day…
It’d started so brightly…
Filled with endless love…
No hint of the evil…
Descending from above…
In that room as he slept…
And was quietly woken…
Subjected to such horrors…
That left him just broken…
Unable to speak…
And unable to smile…
It scarred him forever…
His soul in exile…
Never spoken about since…
Kept in secret & silence…
In fear that speaking out…
May lead to violence…
So it was locked away…
In a box labelled shame…
Forgetting the horror…
Never speaking its name…
Moving on with his life…
Smoothing out its creases…
Trying to live with it…
And pick up the pieces…
But now he is back…
After all those years…
Stood in that room…
Holding back the tears…
With a knife in his hand…
It’s time to submit…
Switch off his pain…
And finally end it…

When I taught I had a student who had been ravaged so frequently by his mother’s boyfriend that he required reconstructive bowel surgery.
Anger and tears.
That is so very sad – Thanks for sharing – Cheers J
