The little Girl and Shane

by Baby Rainbow   Dec 14, 2008


I used to be a little girl
who dreamed she had a dog
a friend that would protect her
and guide her through the fog

and when i was a little girl
my uncle had a dog called Shane
and each night that he raped me
his dog would ease my pain

but when i was a little girl
i broke my uncles rule
i told Shane our secret
so my uncle was really cruel

because when i was that little girl
he gave my friend away
my punishment for telling
and i remember it everyday

    I like the seperate stanzas here, it allows the reader to digest the information easier.

    The poem is another sad one, one that reaches out. Here the poor girl who is repeatedly raped finds her only solace and confidence in a dog. In some ways the cruelest thing that happened to that poor girl was not the rape, rather it was taking the only form of comfort away, her loving pet dog.

    Well done on this.
