I was taken advantage of. I was assaulted. I buried the pain because I couldn’t find the courage to demand accountability. Finding the words were forced upon me through serendipitous civic duty. Was a drunken night when I said no but the relented relevant? Was something I had no memory of relevant? When I found the words there was no one to speak those words to and sit with me with those words.

I was assaulted and I don’t know how to handle it. It was someone I trusted. Someone I thought was my friend. Someone i didn’t think I needed to be on guard around.

On guard. That’s all I ever am nowadays. On guard for disappointment. On guard for devastation. On guard for anger. On guard for depression. On guard for damnation. On guard for death.

But loneliness isn’t my always. Sadness isn’t my always. Even here, God journeys with me. Hallelujah!
