Abuse
Twilight comes and she
Can't Sleep
So she just lays there
Moonlight floods into her small room
Making shadows come alive
Making shadows dance
When morning comes, they disappear
And she cry, longing to disappear from this world with them
Covering bruises, black and blue and purple
Hear the screaming
Smell the alcohol, hear the crys
Showing no emotion as she watchs helplessly
Her mother slapped down to the ground
Her father a drunken slur
Escape, escape
She can't escape
Why can't she escape?
Is this all she can look forward to
Haunted by the screams, the crys
The familar smell
She just wishs that he wouldn't touch her like that
She hates him so
Why?
Why?
Why does her mother do nothing about it?
Even when she hears her daughter scream for help?
Why, oh why?
Is it because her mother has become so numb to this world?
Or is it because she's afraid?
She's just a young girl, already feeling pain
Hiding bruises, hiding her shame
Can't Sleep
So she just lays there
Moonlight floods into her small room
Making shadows come alive
Making shadows dance
When morning comes, they disappear
And she cry, longing to disappear from this world with them
Covering bruises, black and blue and purple
Hear the screaming
Smell the alcohol, hear the crys
Showing no emotion as she watchs helplessly
Her mother slapped down to the ground
Her father a drunken slur
Escape, escape
She can't escape
Why can't she escape?
Is this all she can look forward to
Haunted by the screams, the crys
The familar smell
She just wishs that he wouldn't touch her like that
She hates him so
Why?
Why?
Why does her mother do nothing about it?
Even when she hears her daughter scream for help?
Why, oh why?
Is it because her mother has become so numb to this world?
Or is it because she's afraid?
She's just a young girl, already feeling pain
Hiding bruises, hiding her shame

Wow, this is amazing...and sad
I will never be able to write like that...ever
With practice, of course you will!
To tell you the truth, I JUST started to write poetry.
that was amazing, you should enter this into the 2011 quibblo choise awards.....
It has to be nominated. So, you can nominate it if you wish.
alright, just tell me how and where, then consider it done.
Theres a story about the 2011 Quibblo Choice Awars on my profile saying who is having it. All you have to do is comment with the name of the story and the creator.

I love this poem! I think this is my favorite one of your I ever read, though I like all of the ones by you I read. It's really awesome! It's sad and you really feel bad for the girl when you read it. The way you wrote made the whole scene come alive. Really, really amazing!
Sad, but beautifully written
