She was only five

by The Girl From Yesterday   Feb 21, 2007


Not mine, but SO sad!
---------

She was only five
This is what happened
When she was alive...

Her dad was a drunk
Her mom was an addict
Her parents kept her
Locked in an attic

Her only friend
was a little toy bear
It was old and worn out
And had patches of hair

She always talked to it
When no one's around
She lays there and hugs it
Not a peep of sound

Until her parents
unlock the door
Some more and more pain
She'll have to endure

A bruise on her leg
A scar on her face
Why would she be
In such a horrible place?

But she grabs her bear
And softly cries
She loves her parents
But they want her to die

She sits in the corner
Quiet but thinking,
"Please God, why is
My life always sinking? "

Such a bad life
For a sad little kid
She'd get beaten and beaten
For anything she did

Then one night
Her mom came home high
And the poor child was beaten
As hours went by

Then her mom suddenly
Grabbed for a blade
It was sharp and pointy
One that she made

She thrust the blade
Right in her chest,
"You deserve to die
You worthless pest!"

The mom walked out
Leaving the girl slowly dieing
She grabbed her bear
And again started crying

Police showed up
At the small little house
Then quickly barged in
Everything quiet as a mouse

One officer slowly
Opened a door
To find the little girl
Lying on the floor

It must have been bad
To go through so much harm
But at least she died
With her best friend in her arms

A child dies every day from child abuse. And if you have an ounce of pity and you hate child abuse with a passion you will vote 5 on this and help out those abused children and let them know that someone cared for them. It doesn't take that long only about 10 seconds so please just do it

    What you say about the child abuse going around is true... and unfortunate
    sadly enough not much is being done to prevent these crimes
    btw this poem was quite powerful

    Oh my gosh! I cried. I ain't gonna lie. I cried. The part that made me fall apart was "that she loved her parents but they wanted her to die" and "At least she died with her best friend in her arms."So sad...So sad
