Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

This was in Sakura's journal, and it said to pass it on, it didnt make me cry, but it made me horribly sad, so I figured I'd post it here.
I think abuse is horrible, and anyone who is ever abused should speak up to the authorities, personally, i've never been abused, but I know it is hard to speak up, but it has to be done.

Child Abuse(Seriously It Needs To Stop!)
My name is Sarah

I am 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 do a wrong

I can't speak at all

Or else I'm locked up

All day long.

When I'm awake I'm all alone

The house is dark

My folks aren't home

When my mommy does come home

I'll try and be nice,

So maybe I'll just get

One whipping tonight.

I just heard a car

My daddy is back

From Charlie's bar.

I hear him curse

My name is called

I press myself

Against the wall

I try to hide

From his evil eyes

I'm so afraid now

I'm starting to cry

He finds me weeping

Calls me ugly words,

He says its my fault

He suffers at work.

He slaps and hits me

And yells at me more,

I finally get free

And run to 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,

"Im sorry!", I scream

But its now much too late

His face has been twisted

Into an unimaginable shape

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

Brawled on the floor

My name is Sarah

I am three,

Tonight my daddy

Murdered me.

And you can help

Sickens me to the soul,

And if you read this

And don't pass it on

I pray for your forgiveness

Cause you would have to be

One heartless person

To not be affected

By this poem

And because you are affected,

Do something about it

So all I ask you to do

Is pass this on

IF YOU ARE AGAINST CHILD ABUSE!

PLEASE REPOST THIS AND PASS IT ON
