Betrayed

Family
A love like no other
Unconditional
Untouchable by any other human bond nature has to offer

Who new such a force could be mangled so effortlessly

An affectionate uncle
My favorite uncle
A man I have known since birth
Who's hands used to outstretch to mine when crossing the street to ensure my safety

I'm 18 and suddenly his hands are in my pants
My brain is screaming
It's a year later and I still remember it like it was yesterday

Dissociation is how I withstand the intolerable torment of flooding memories

It's ironic really
that the man who was so worried for my wellbeing as a child is now the sole reason I want to dig my own grave and find peace in finally ceasing to exist
