The Abuse

Published by Family Friend Poems September 2008 with permission of the Author.

When I was little, you abused me in every way.
You hurt me and didn't care because you felt no shame.

When I was little I didn't know
what you were doing wasn't okay.

When I was little I would cry myself to sleep
I would try to hide the tears
and try to hide from the pain.

Bruises all over, no more lies to cover up
now no one to talk to because of the pain.

Finally one day I came to a crossroad.
Do I tell or just stay hidden beneath the covers all day?

You now are in prison, but I still feel the pain
I don't want to cry anymore because it's tearing me down...

So for you, dear daddy, I won't shed another tear.
