Your friend sounds well meaning, but sometimes we need to go back in order to move forward. I cannot even imagine the horror of your experience. If it feels right to express it openly, then by all means do it. And you have. I don't know you, but I feel very proud to have shared in your poem and even your pain.
Keep writing! Keep healing.
