It scares me to think of
that abused little girl.
You live in your world
and she is tortured in hers.
Today you passed by her, all bruised and scared.
Should I talk to her? Should I help her?
I don't know what to do.
So while she's abused, you think and act confused.
Do you really care?
If you did you'd realize
that while you sleep safe,
she's beat in the face.
Why does this happen
to this poor little girl?
She's taunted and teased.
She's pushed down on her knees.
The bruises, the cuts, and the scrapes
are only half the pain she is caused.
Your words are like claws,
ripping and tearing every piece of her life.
She has no soul, it was stabbed with a knife.
After two shots, both her parents are dead.
She then takes the gun up to her head.
With one big blow all her pain goes away.
Now who's to blame?

A very powerful poem. It's very interesting topic and a good question. But there really is no way to actually determine something like that. Great write and good luck in the contest!
