P is for please don't hurt me like they did.T is for turn on the light, I don't like what happens in the dark.
S is for sex. That's on unhealthy coping mechanisms.
D is for "Don't."
Don't touch me,
Don't leave me,
Don't see what they see.It's not being able to eat chocolate spread sandwiches without memories resurfacing from around the first time you tried it.
It's only being able to sleep on the inside of a bed so you can always see if someone's coming into your room.
It's never being able to take your socks off. Ever.
Because of how it makes you feel.
It's a mess. That only you can address.
To much for them to understand,
You'll never have the upper hand.
