Step Four
My part, my heart!
I told her he was just friendly.
I didn't tell her he was broken.
My part, my eyes!
I showed her a father.
I didn't show her a rapist.
My part, my lips!
I spoke words of a fantasy.
I should have spoken honesty.
My part, my power!
I was looked up to.
I should have been looked down upon.
My part, my past!
I told her I was healed.
I should have told her I was dead inside.
My part, my peace, my lies.
