Little Jenny was abused

by Emily   Jun 20, 2005


Little Jenny's in her room,
She was beat again,
Her body's sore all over
The pain never seems to end
Daddy's at work all day,
and always comes home mad
Little Jenny can't make mistakes,
It'd be worse if she were bad,
Daddy doesn't love her,
Mommy hates her guts
Poor Little Jenny's body,
Is covered in bruises and cuts,
A little angel dropped in hell,
Is struggling to survive,
The beatings are so cruel,
It's a miracle she's alive,
Poor Jenny's Dad is home,
Mommy tells him Jenny was bad,
Now Daddy's searching for her,
And you can tell he's mad
Daddy's stomping up the stairs,
Jenny hides in the closet,
He comes and opens the door,
Jenny is afraid that this is it
He grabs Jenny out,
and drags her blond hair,
He slaps her delicate face,
And she goes flying through the air,
She's curled up on the floor,
Screaming "Daddy no!"
Daddy doesn't care
So he sends another blow,
Jenny hits the wall,
and falls onto the floor
Her bones shaking in her body,
She can't take too much more,
Daddy picks up the girl,
Crumpled on the ground,
He starts to kick poor Jenny,
She's being tossed around
Her little heart is broken,
Why is life unfair?
Little girls get daddy's that love them,
Jenny's doesn't care,
Daddy's choking Jenny,
She's Trying to get out of his grasp
She's trying to breathe,
But can only gasp,
Jenny's Daddy's killing her,
Jenny's trying not to die,
Daddy's throws her on her bed,
But Jenny's not alive,
Was she too ugly?
What did she do wrong?
No child deserves this,
She suffered too long,
If only her parents loved her,
If only she wasn't hurt and bruised,
If only she had a chance at life,
If only she wasn't abused

To this DAY it's my most popular poem, because for some reason a macabre tragedy catches attention. Rhyming's shaky. Apologies.
