I cry......

by Nikki McKay   Mar 20, 2006


I am crying as I begin this page.
I don't cry for me though.
I am strong and I have endured.
I cry for that little girl
I keep hidden safe inside.

I cry for my younger sisters
who have also survived.
I cry for all those little boys
and girls who are being harmed
everyday by someone they trusted.

Incest is a word that nobody
wants to say or hear.
Incest has no economic,etnic
or geographical boundries.

Recovery is difficult
but at least now we know
we are not to blame
and we are not alone.
Be gentle with the child within..

(not mine)
