A deeply personal and emotionally charged reflection, this piece explores the lasting impact of trauma, betrayal, and unresolved pain. Told from the perspective of someone who endured violence and neglect from a trusted figure, it unfolds as a raw, stream-of-consciousness monologue questioning identity, purpose, and the absence of love in a place where it should have been unconditional. With vivid memories of a single life-altering event and the loneliness that followed, the narrator confronts their past with unfiltered honesty, refusing to forget or forgive. This is not just a recounting—it’s a cry for acknowledgment, a voice for the unseen, and a testament to resilience in the face of deep emotional wounds.
