this is a letter
for the men who raped me
when they were boys
and we were children
i'm not a child anymore
but i'm sure you are
and i can't take this anymore
but i'm sure you can
i'm sure you can
i was so scared
i was so scared
and i needed help
i was so scared i was so scared
and i needed help
i was ashamed
i was ashamed
of my
body
i was ashamed i was ashamed
of my body
of my body
of my body
*****
but i forgive you
for being stupid
and for being cruel
and for being
mean to me
and i forgive you
for using me
and my body
as your tool
and i forgive you
for not being greater
than the lies
that were told to you
i forgive you
i forgive you
i forgive you
i'm trying
i forgive you
for being stupid
and for being cruel
and for being
mean to me
and i forgive you
for using me
and my body
as your tool
and i forgive you
for not being greater
than the lies
that were told to you
