How do I let any one in
If I don't even let my
Self in? What is proper
Protocol in polite society?
"Hello my name is - I am a survivor of child hood sexual molestation
And rape. Would you like to get a sandwich?"
I wonder the responses
The pity, the shame, the backing away, the fear the absolute fear
I am hard enough to like
How much harder will it
Be - as the words escape me
And the tears - I am about
To have a river of my own
