I hide myself
Faking a smile
But deep inside
I am traumatized
From my childhood.
He stole it...
My innocence gone
Only age five.
My nightmares began
Many years later.
All grown up
Wanting to forget
But I can't...
His face remains
In my nightmares
Every night still
In my sleep.
The trauma repeats
Blood, pain, tears
I see him...
I give up
He's always here
It never ends.
