To an Uncle

I'm sorry I told them about the things you did to me as a child. I'm sorry that since I was so young I actually enjoyed it. I was confused and scared, and didnt want to lose you. You are my uncle, for fucks sake. I'm sorry that it made you feel like you had to lie to your own family to avoid admitting what you did. It has been way to long, and I still wish that I had just been able to hide the pain it caused me and the problems it left me with so that I could save our already fragile family. You were always my favorite uncle, and you were always the one that i was most afraid of losing. Don't let my having finally admitted the truth keep you from speaking to your own damn mother.

please call her and tell her that you are okay, that you love her, and that you are sorry for hurting me. That is all I ask. I'm not mad anymore. There is no reason for me to be.
