Don't tell
Some say that in order to be loved you must accept it from yourself View it on the inside, so that when you are taken aside you will be filled with warmth instead of feeling the warmth from a hand sliding its way up your back. Turning on the light Don't scratch don't bite. Do you take the dare or put up a fight With only a fraction of your mind filled with what it will soon know How can you say no. To be fearless, to not back down, or use their years against them naivety is taken for granted. But when you look at the nativity scene you see the gleam of a mothers careful hand and the satellite on which he stands is brought to mind "Will you be the one who gets me in trouble?"
