Your Secret
It was our secret
But I was yours
Only 5 years old
Too young to know
Holding your hand
Love made me blind
I didn't understand
What was left behind
MY trust
MY faith
MY childhood
You stole
Every fragment
Of all that was good
MY pain
MY fear
MY broken heart
You forced
Them on me
You tore me apart
Too weak to fight
Too scared to tell
I was dying inside
Trapped in hell
You swallowed
Me whole
In this world
That you made
Conditioned
My thoughts
So that I obeyed
It was our secret
But I was yours
Only 5 years old
Too young to know
