Age 8 she was molested
She told her parents
Then her parents and his parents connected.
The 17 year old boy didn’t contest it.
This is what was suggested:
Basically, Under the Rug
is where they Swept It.
Shame took precedence
over Blame
life, after tonight would never be the same
Worry began to sink in
What would the neighbors and
the devout parishioners say
Our families would have to find another Holier-than-thou Church to pray
So they all reminded Silent
No visible bruises on her, so to them, he couldn’t have been physically violent.
His parents confined their son to
his room for a few weeks
But for months, the 8 year old girl would barely speak.
The 17 year old teen would go on to make the varsity football team. At age 20 he become an MVP football player, with a barrage of sexual harassment law suits less that one year later.
While the offender continues playing his game, that poor little girl’s life will never be the same.
She’s 30 now, still feeling Abused and Unprotected.
Alone, having had to face at age 8 that she was raped, while the parents worried more about avoiding gossip surrounding what his parents called, “their son’s mistake.”
It wasn’t a mistake. It was a serious Crime. An attack so frightening, so premeditated, so violent,
but just like the Parents,
SHE STILL REMAINS SILENT.
Until Today,
She confided in Me,
but,
I’m Not One to keep
SEXUAL ASSAULT QUIET!
She had to have known that I would
Write About it!!!
