    Painfully beautiful. I spent years trying to forgive the little girl before figuring out that I was holding her accountable for crimes she had not committed, so instead I apologised to her and she, she forgave me. Then, together we forgave the him. And though he cares not for our forgiveness we make him drink it down like poison, make him wear it like a heavy blanket of shame that we grew tired from carrying ourselves.

    So much vulnerability and honesty with very spoken word poetry she utters. This is kind of therapy I guess.

    And doubt me. She is saying she is a Dirty Girl, and has another poem that mentions her having crooked teeth, which she references a bit here. :)

    trying to hold in all the blame, drawing it inward, blaming yourself because you will not, you cannot blame him for what he did. She will do anything but blame him.
