We visit counsellors
because we need help.

Because at some points,
the world is a hurricane
we have no control over.

My counsellor
was my hurricane,
my mess.

Because once
I stepped to her office,
all I wanted to do was open up.

I wanted to deal
with my anxiety attacks.

I wanted someone
to talk to about my sexuality.

And after doing all of that,
after learning about my bisexuality,
she explained it again.

As if I didn't know
how sex works,
as if I never learnt
that in my sophomore.

Then, she moved her fingers
to places I'd never mention.

She moved her fingers
as if I'll let her do it.

I did.

Not because I said yes
but because I didn't say anything.

I was
too shocked
to say no.

And she never found it wrong
to screw up someone's life
with one touch of
simple joy.
