Complicit

In Silence

By Amanda CannonPublished about a year ago 1 min read

So quietly, we watched you systematically destroy us with your

Intelligence, your manipulations, your

Lies. We tried to push it down, pretend the abuse didn’t

Exist, just like you didn’t exist—merely a façade of your own creation.

Never speak of it again; keep your secrets; keep you safe—

Complicit. We are complicit. In all that happened after.

Every last one of us.
