ASK YOURSELF in the most silent hour of your night: must I write? Dig into yourself for a deep answer. And if this answer rings out in assent, if you meet this solemn question with a strong, simple "I must," then build your life in accordance with this necessity..." - Rainer Maria Rilke
Alright, you guys. Really hard core poem, so if you don't want to read it, don't. Child abuse. It is really emotional. I found it in the writing forums. Just goes to show you how ugly humans can be. So really. It is upsetting.










The Child Abuse Poem:

My name is Sarah,
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen,
I cannot see,
I must be stupid,
I must be bad,
What else could have made,
My daddy so mad?
I wish I were better,
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy,
Would still want to hug me.
I can't speak at all,
I can't do a wrong,
Or else I'm locked up,
All the day long.
When I'm awake I'm all alone,
The house is dark,
My folks aren't home.
When my mommy does come.
My parents will fight,
So maybe I'll get just one whipping tonight.
Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car,
My daddy is back,
From Charlie's Bar.
I hear him curse,
My name he calls,
I press myself against the wall.
I try and hide against the wall,
I try and hid from his evil eyes.
I'm so afraid now,
I'm starting to cry.
He finds me weeping,
He shouts ugly words,
He says it's my fault,
That he suffers at work.
He slaps me and hits me,
And yells at me more,
I finally get free,
And i run for the door.
He's already locked it,
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me,
Against the hard wall,
I fall to the floor,
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues,
With more bad words spoken.
"I'm sorry!", I scream,
But it's now much to late,
His face has been twisted,
Into unimaginable hate.
The hurt and the pain,
Again and again,
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!
And he finally stops,
And heads for the door,
While I lay there Motionless,
Sprawled on the floor.
My name is Sarah,
And I am but three,
Tonight my daddy,
Has murdered me.

This is one of the reasons why I hate humans. What other kind of animal hurts its own kind? A certain spider. Something else. That's it. And humans do all this to little children who can't fight back. It makes me so ******** sick. How are the good things supposed to outweigh that?

Her dad was a drunk
Her mom was an addict
Her parents kept her
Locked up 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 laid there and hugged it
Not a peep of sound

Just waiting for her parents
To 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?

She grabbed her bear
And softly cried
She loved her parents
But they wanted her to die

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

Such a bad life
For such 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 the hours went by

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

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

Then her mom walked out
Leaving the girl slowly dying
She grabbed her bear
And again started crying

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

One officer slowly
Opened the door
To find the little girl
Sprawled out 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
