Pain Torture Darkness

Three things
I know very well
Thanks to you
My innocence is gone
Never to be returned
The images are forever
Sketched in my mind
The physical pain
Has long since ceased
The emotional pain
Is still fresh
Time will make it less
But it will never go away
You ruined a child
Not only her esteem
But the very thing
That makes a child a child
Their trust in those around them
