Maybe you will never exist.

I do not know how to teach you all the things you need to know

I don’t want you to fear the world

I don’t want you to fear men

So how do I teach you safety?

If I tell you the things that they have done to me

You might cower away from all men

Because it is so hard to tell

The safe ones from the unsafe

If I tell you about the man my father told me was safe

My brother told me were safe

My mother told me were safe

How they were all wrong

Will you ever be able to trust men?

If I tell you about the love I have seen

And how everytime I look closely

The cracks of infidelity are there

Even in the most obviously in love

As if it is simply inevitable

Will you ever be able to love freely?

My mother taught me safety

As all mothers must

She taught me about family

And what they did to her

And it amazes me now

That my family trusts family so freely with their babies

How could I ever trust anyone with you?

I think about you with awe and wonder

A gift of joy and light

Then I look up into the real world

And I see that nowhere is safe for you

Noone is safe for you

Nothing is safe for you

Maybe it is better if you never exist.
