UNSUBSTANTIATED

I walked through the door  
They said "Please, sit down"  
"We've got some bad news,  
It's all over town"  
"Someone said something,  
And said it was you"  
"She said that you touched her,  
We know that's not true"  
I've always loved kids  
In all the right ways  
I never looked AT THEM  
Not even sideways  
Along comes His Ex  
His Ex with a grudge  
She took my good name  
And turned it to sludge  
We all were questioned,  
By all the experts  
Questions that frightened  
Questions that hurt  
And "NO"was the answer  
The little girl said  
"Oh, I sat on his lap"  
"But!, he only read!"  
"Unsubstantiated" was  
The word that they used  
It stays with you always  
A huge mental bruise  
Forty years later  
I keep them at bay  
NO!, It's not right  
But how it will stay
