Tears of a loved one

Jeremiah,

This is all I've longed to say
I cant forget the years you enslaved

I still remember you looking at my childish face
You were in your own world with all this space

After four years of letting you touch and pry
It took another helpless little girl to speak out and die

A torture you brought threatening us both
A brother to us, our love is to hard to loathe

I tear up and run away from love in all ways
Afraid that you'll enter our body's another day

I cant sleep at night because I fear that your there
I love how our parents didn't even care

My body is weak I was only seven at the time
You took away my childhood like it wasn't even mine

A brother I loved and I thought I'd always trust
To a rapist who got away with far to much

My eyes flood over as I see the family you have now
And I wonder 'you? a family? what? why? and how?'

Author notes

This is very true and I've never expressed this in a poem before...i don't even like thinking about it..and I was on the verge of tears so though its unfinished it has to stop there
