A letter to my sister.

To: My Sister I didn’t protect.

The people that ostracized me

To the only family I had that made me feel guilty 

I hate that this happened to you too

I hate that you yearn for freedom and live carrying this dark pain 

My wound is still raw and still burns 

The pain is nagging 

It nags and nags and nags,

And nags and nags 

I hate that I didn’t warn you 

I was suffocated by fear

But I’m proud of you

You did the right thing 

I’m here to hold your hand 

To cry and yell and cry and scream

Sincerely,

LotusFlowerRN
