That little girl,
alone in the world.
That little girl,
not one person to call a friend.
That little girl,
huddled in the corner,
trying to avoid daddies rage.
That little girl,
bruised and battered, welps on her backside.
That little girl,
she was lead away the other day,
to a squad car.
That little girl
she was me.
Author notes
My mother and father were both like this. I was always beten and used as a punching bag. But now that I have a better "home" and great friends, I'm doin sooooo much better:-)

Great poem. Sometimes the extremes are what is needed to get over some things.. Great imagery and I like the fear your poem shows in the beginning. I'm glad you're better and great poem, thanks for entering.
