Alone She Cried
5/29/04

She reflects on times gone by...
When as a little girl her innocence was taken away
Gone now her chance to live without lies
That s why tonight alone she cries

It should never have taken place
The incident too horrible to describe...
It took the smile permanently off a child`s face
Built walls too high to climb

Relationships for her never came easy
Those ungrateful guys would just push her away
She was always too eager to please
Her emotions too easily played

Just when everything seemed to go right
She thought she had put her nightmares behind
A rapist attacked her in the middle of the night
Terror would never again leave her mind

She has tried to live her life unrestrained
The lines in her once beautiful face have aged
She cant go on without constant pain
The reminder of uncontrolled rage

Crumpled up in a corner of her world
Time betrayed her as a constant friend
Tragedy has taken God`s little pearl
Praying it was painless in the end

    For some reason I feel like I've read this before...I checked to see if I wrote you about it but I didn't...maybe I read this while passing by. Not sure. So sad...but so true for people all of the world. It hurts my feelings to think about it...but you put it into words so nicely! :)

    Very nice. It's sad that this ends up being the case for so many young girls who are the victim of abuse. This is a topic close to my heart and you did a good job with your prose.
