The facts, the truth
what he said so true
that the pain was pushed down
buried in their soul
Not coming forward
the pain too great
yet heroes when they were called
standing in the breach
Not all of those who have known this
unwanted touching
many still hidden
in the dark recesses
The facts, the truth
pushed down in the past
open wounds unhealed
when evil stalks the earth

the Sandusky victims
