Beatiful Daughter, Horrible Secrets

Her tiny, fragile face
Eyes the color of a beautiful ocean
Holding the secrets of the world

Her golden locks
Cascading down her back
So soft and shiny

Her pretty smile
Her soft laugh
The sound of her voice



What could she be hiding?



You would never have guessed



What was happening at home...



The pain she suffered
Those bruses she hid from you
Her smile covering up the lies

Her parents screams
Her fathers blows
Her mothers tsks

Those hateful words
Her hushed cries for help
An empty belly



All because she is the unwanted, the unloved



One doll to play with
Her only true friend
Staying with her through-out the night

It's ragged, tear stained dress
Bare feet
Dirty hands and face

But it's a comfort to her
Through those long, sleepless nights
She has a friend who cares

In a list

Please tell me what you think

    Wow.
    This is so sad, and yet, I freaking fell in love with it.
    So powerful!

    and a joy to read it......
    I hope you get good claps,

    these comments and claps,
    I don't see one thing wrong wit your piece,

    well.................
    maybe, if you wanted to, was drag it on, just a little bit more, but that's the only thing i saw.....

    This poem almost brought me to tears,
    and I'm the person who never cries.......
