Alone and afraid
she huddles against the wall,
please don’t let him find me
not this time, I wasn’t bad at all.
Hands reach down
grab her by the hair,
she feels the first hit
there’s pain everywhere.
She cries out loud
but nobody hears,
and if they did
it fell on deaf ears.
Left bruised and bleeding
laying on the floor,
all because she forgot
to lock the front door.
She’s all alone
in pain and full of fear,
why won’t anyone help her
does no body hear?.
She’s seven years old
her life a living hell,
and not one neighbor
will pick up the phone and tell.

~And she flies to a place where she’s loved~
