The Fear Is Always There

The fear never goes away

Every time someone raises their hand a little to fast
Every time someone moves to fast
They might not think it's fast
But to you it is

You try not to flinch
But it happens anyways
You can't stop it
You get flashbacks
And there so overwhelming

When someone asks you why your afraid of their hand on your thigh

You'll never be able to get the image out of your head of a hand moving
Further
And further up your thigh
When you don't want it to
And it scares you
So you slap their hand away
And they look so confused
And you just...can't tell them.

The fear never goes away...
