I was only seven

She writes a letter to her family and friends
Explaining why she brought her life to an end
She kept it a secret for so long
She made it easier, she wrote a song
'Something dreadful happened to me
I was the age of seven
But now I'm free and I have the key
And I'm standing at the doors of heaven
I was abused you see, I was seven years old
A family friend you thought you new so well,
As he touched me my blood ran cold
But he had you all under a spell
This simple act you all could see
Made you think he was great
Whilst all the time he was abusing me
He filled my life with hate
Over and over again he took my pride
My innocence of being a child
Every night I laid and cried
As my emotions and thoughts run wild
I don't understand how no one could see
Just what was going on?
This nightmare I lived, to a great degree
Has dominated my life too long
But now its too late, I could no longer cope
He'll never serve his sentence
But every person he does grope
He's now got me on his conscience'
