When I close my eyes I see your face.
Your eyes tell a story you cannot speak
Years of lies, hurt, and pain
Torture and freedom,
You were 7 then
Young fragile and so alone
Abused and lost
Little cries in the night no one can hear
Screams in your dreams no one listened
A lost soul flown away
Lost in a world scared and alone
Why weren’t you there for me?
Why wouldn’t you listen?
Pay attention!
Lost in your own world
I called your name
You weren’t there for me
I was scared I cried for you
Your job was to protect me
Save me
You failed me
I was forgotten by the hands of myself
Maybe now they will listen to my silent cries.
