I forgive you

I forgive you
I forgive you for all the pain you caused
The torment
You tore my family apart.
I forgive you for what you did
You scared me
I cant trust men
I think they're out to hurt me
Like you did
That will never change.
I never told anyone
This is between me and you.
I can forgive
But not forget
This will always be in my nightmares
This will affect me
For the rest of my life
But I forgive you
And I love you like a grand-daughter should
But you broke that trust
I will rebuild it slowly
You're gone so you can no longer hurt me
Which heals some of the pain.
But it will never fully go away.

Author notes

Since I was 3 or so, my grandfather sexually abused and molested me till I was in 7th grade. He pasted away this year, which I've very happy he did. He cant hurt me anymore.

Cut your heart out.

    Excellent

    I feel the pain, and somewhat a sad rejoice that it's over that this can no longer happen to you. Full of emotion and I love it! -Claps.- Good write!
