Where were you?

I have to ask.
  
Where were you?

This is not a random happening,
   and only now do people start to talk.

Again,
  where were you?

Ever sheltered a friend,
  while the bruises are still forming?

One moment,
  and I have to stop.

Not just the current cause,
  and I hope you will remember,
   because I just wonder.....

:: a lot of people lose themselves and cannot be found because of (personal) injuries they are secretive about... and the more secretive they are, the more those injuries don't get a chance to heal...

I can understand that side, but I can't help but be angry at those who finally noticed.
Again, not those who have lived through too much abuse, but those who didn't bother to notice.

:: hmmm... i hear you, monsieur jon... thank you for mentioning the sort of people you're referring to... (i was referring to those who've been through so much abuse that they are repressed for no fault of theirs)...

[Jon Roggie]

I understand. One of these days I might quit being so vague.
