Month: September 2016

I didn’t want to survive, but I did.

She was too young to lie about things she shouldn’t know about

we were the perfect Brady Bunch family

As a child, I dissociated. I forgot. I hid.

Everything changed in one day

I knew that our life wouldn’t be the same

I was expected to respect him and do as he wished

it didn’t matter if people were present, he’d find a way

This has proven to be a lonely path

I smiled to cover my sadness
