Innocence

Jenny, our mistress of all things mind-boggling, gave us a two word prompt, and because she is on the warpath this week, only 60 words plus the prompt to work with.  Thank you Jenny, from the bottom of my heart, or is it, just from my bottom. :)  As always, the prompt is in blue.
DEAR JOHN

“Dear John“, she wrote, with shaking hands.  “After all these years of keeping silent, I have decided that in order for me to heal, I must tell you how I feel.”

She stopped to reflect for a moment.   How to put it into words?

“As a young child, you took a part of my innocence away”

“I can finally forgive you”
