maybe not on their wrists or their inner thighs or on their knees

but

on their hearts, souls, and between the cracks and crevices of the little universes they’ve created inside of themselves

say it with me now

still

do not fucking tell me someone with abusive parents “had it easy” just because the abuse wasn’t physical or sexual

just don’t
