His Child

Dear Mother, Dear Father,
I have a story to tell you ,
you may not want  to  hear,
but it is  all true,
remenber me ,your child,
when I was only a small child?
remenber me,your child.
Heartbroken  every  fall?
There was so much  more to me .
my innocence was lost
you turned away from me .
Your child and left me to pay the cost .
I was so young  , so niave.
I thought you loved me
parents protect  their children .
They are not blind ,they can see.
He hurt me so bad , mommy
he made me  bleed
he stole my soul , Daddy
My eyes  you could not read .
I was so young 
I was only seven
he said he loved me
It was hell not heaven 
now here I am  mommy
an  adult with my  own child .
Do I forgive the past ?
Do I know how to love?
Do I have hatred in my heart ?
No I have faith  in GOd  above.
He will protect  me , HIs child
He will not let me die .
I am  his child now .
Please do not question why .

    This piece actually brewed a few tears in my eyes. It was beautiful in that you showed your faith in your father, the Lord. Though life throws sour lemons at us, we can still make lemonade with sugar additions, to move past the darkness and taste the sweeter side. Congratulations on the silver and good luck in the other contests! This piece was emotional, as well as deep. Keep up the great work!

    Excellent !

    You have written a very moving poem. I almost cried. I hope this was not a true story, or what a sad life you have had. I will keep you in my prayers from now on. Keep up the great work.

    Excellent

    A child should not go through life, suufering abuse, in the very hands of their own parents.
    It is not right.

    My heart hurts, for those, that are going through this.
    Great write my friend.
    Well done.

    Keep up with the great work.
    Keep on penning.

    Oh this is good. You speak of the pain of abuse and emotional neglect. Who can understand why a parent would turn their back on a child who was abused. But we are always a child of God and he never turns his back on us.
    great job on this.
