Chaygit Cutler
He touches her in places she covers
Yet tells her to be modest
He insists she lies to protect his lies
Yet expects her to stay truthful
He breaks her spirit repeatedly
Yet demands she stay religious
He causes her physical pain
Yet judges her when she hurts herself
He misuses his position and power
Yet instructs her to trust the leaders
He exposes her to adult information
Yet expects her to remain innocently childlike
He breaks the most sacred religious laws
Yet insists she fears and believes in G-d.
He promises her this is love
Yet it feels like a punishment
For a crime she distantly remembers knowing she didn’t commit
And all the people wonder
Why she is disconnected
Why she is confused
And why she is angry
And even when she told them
They had heard, but hadn’t listened
And they didn’t realize
He had killed her long before she died
