I could think of a million things I would rather do than write this
story; things like doing my laundry, scrubbing the toilet or even filing
my taxes… early. But like my mother always said, the sooner you begin,
the sooner it will end.
As much as I have proclaimed that the sexual abuse that I was subjected to no longer affects me, there is still that tiny island inside of me where that little boy resides. He is still hurt, he is still confused and he trusts no one. I rarely visit him, but when I do, I am reminded that he can never leave.
