Daughters

I'm a survivor of incest. My oldest brother raped me. This song makes me so sad, but it also makes me happy, because someone out there cares. I come from a large family, and many in my family have pretty much just dumped me, once I revealed the ugly truth. Nobody wants to admit that kind of ugliness exists so close to home, right? I get it. But my own parents have the hardest time, and have called me a liar. I'm not a liar. I'm sad and lonely, and I miss my family, but I'm not a liar.

This is a good song.



For anyone out there who is hurting and lonely, for those of you who want to cry when you listen to this song - you have a friend in me. You aren't alone. Be strong. You're a survivor. That says so much about you. Stand tall and be proud of who you are. I love you.
