Validation

Hey, little girl
yes, you
the betrayed sixteen year
old with anger sparking from
your fierce green eyes,
tears stinging your cheeks
more than her hand did.
You told the truth
you did the right thing
Bullies and perps should be
exposed, even when others
refuse to believe, even when
you know it happened to her
too.
Don't shut up.
Never regret telling her
about her dad, the real one,
the closet freak, not the
macho swaggering cowboy.
Never hesitate to call others
on their crap.
Never regret being true to
yourself.
No one else will be.
