A STORY OF A SAD GIRL..
Her name was Abby
She was only five
This is what happened
... When she was alive
Her dad was a drunk
Her mom was an addict
Her parents kept her
Locked in an attic
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 lays there and hugs it
Not a peep of sound
Until her parents
unlock the door
Some more and more pain
She'll have to endore
A bruise on her leg
A scar on her face
Why would she be
In such a horrible place?
But she grabs her bear
And softly crys
She loves her parents
But they want her to die
She sits in the corner
Quiet but thinking,
" God, why? Why is
My life always sinking? "
Such a bad life
For a sad little kid
She'd get beaten and beaten
For anything she did
Then one night
Her mom came home high
The poor child was hit and slapped
As hours went by
Then her mom suddenly
Grabbed for a blade
It was sharp and pointy
One that she made
She thrusted the blade
Right in her chest,
" You deserve to die
You worthless pest! "
The mom walked out
Leaving the girl slowly dying
She grabbed her bear
And again started crying
Police showed up
At the small little house
They quickly barged in
Everything was as quiet as a mouse
One officer slowly
Opened a door
To find the sad little girl
Lying 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
The reason as to why I decided to post this poem is because I cannot think of anyone, who in their right mind, would want to hurt a child. A child is a beautiful gift from God, one that is to be respected, taken care of, and loved. In this poem, we see the exact opposite of how a child should be treated, which was to be physically beaten and harmed until the point of death. To think that this little girl's (with regards to the poem above) only best friend was her toy teddy bear; and all through her young life, she barely had any support and love from her own family. What was worse, at the point of her death, she still had no support from them. I am honestly extremely sad for this child and I hope that no child ever has to endure this kind of pain. However, the truth of the matter is that child abuse is present in society today and sometimes we forget that it is happening because we get too caught up in our own dilemmas. It is actually for this reason that I wrote this blog - to remind all of us of the evil presence of child abuse in our society and that we should, in all our efforts, spread this current issue around to families and friends; so that one day, we may finally put an end to child abuse!
