I will not be a silent mother

My mom said “many girls went through the sexual abuse you should just move on with your life”

But who’s going to protect these girls? If we choose silence? Who’s gonna defend us if we choose silence?

But mother I’ve been quiet for almost 15 years

And its time to speak up the truth

The pain we went through…

the nightmares I went through

The toxic relationships we put ourselves in to fill the emptiness just to forget our pain

The temporary happiness we chase

The healing process takes years

The self-harm we go through

The loneliness we feel

The death we taste while we are still alive

The dreams we give up on

What about us? If nobody will stand for me and for other women who experience the same pain that I experienced.

I will stand for them

I will speak for them

I will be their voice

I will not be a silent mother

Be Open Says;
