 I cannot  forgive him

I cannot tell of how I feel
I cannot express the shame
That engulfs me each time I hear
the whisper of his name.

I cannot bear the remotest thought
of the memory of his touch
His hands on me, his body on mine
remembering hurts too much.

I cannot wash away the smell
or the feel of him
No amount of water will cleanse me
of his touch on my skin.

I cannot see him day to day
in the company of my friends
Without the feeling of betrayal
that he once was one of them.

I cannot believe I trusted him
as a friend of mine
All his smiles and charming ways
will haunt me till the end of time.

I cannot believe I let him in
what was I thinking of?
There was no consent, no choice,
and nothing that resembled love.

I cannot hear the whispers
without feeling the shame
The knowledge of what he did to me
is like being raped again.

I cannot escape the torment
that fills my heart with pain
No laughter or joy in my soul
only emptiness remains.

I cannot feel the support around me
of those I call my friends
Where  are they in my time of need ~
on whom can I depend?

I cannot ever forget the pain
of my loneliness
Where I once had belief and love
he gave me emptiness.

I cannot begin to forgive him
he took too much from me
My innocence, trust and all he replaced
with the shame he gave to me.

believe it or not slowly but surely it gets better but even when it does there's always another challenge. but with a therapist and couple of good friends i believe that maybe i can find real peace. every one of us can. we are survivors not victims. remember that it takes strength to be happy.
