‘No one else notices you, gives you the attention that you deserve, I will’
‘You’re special to me, I don’t show anyone else what I do you’
‘A sex game that is just ‘ours’, that is why it must stay secret’
‘You don’t need to be scared, it’s a nice feeling’
‘A gift for you, to wear for me’
Naive, gullible, slag

No one noticed me, or gave me attention, but you broke me!
You don’t show anyone else because you’d have been caught!
Sex isn’t a game, not to an 8 year old, you shouldn’t be playing! It was never fun being your secret!
I was always scared, you confused my head, manipulated, scared is all’s I knew! It’s a dirty and shameful feeling!
A gift for you to get off and abuse me further! I was already damaged, already damaged you needn’t have bought me when you had the whole of me!
The only question I have now isn’t why, but where were the adults, my protectors, how did it happen for so long?
The rest of me is empty, dead almost - should I say thanks for everything??

Just wanted to say that the way you have wrote this amazing and its so honest so thank you for sharing.
I can understand you may be feeling upset and confused maybe? and I know that its hard to relive things that have happened to us in the past, so I'm sending hugs your way.
How are you feeling today?<3
