Broken Dreams

She was only 8. He
hurt her to the point
she couldn't sleep at
night from fear.

For 3 years he made
her do things. Hurt her
on the inside. Just couldn't
show it. She didn't say a word
about it.

At his house alone. He
would rape her. Sexually
abuse her. After that he let
her go. She acted like nothing
happened.

Her dream to be
a virgin till marriage
was ruined. She was
wanting to keep it that
way. But now because of
him. She had many dreams.
But now....Now their all broken
Dreams.

Author notes

    Powerful and sad poem, oh what that little girl must have gone through...such hate she must have for her abuser. Just the last line I think you should fix, something like, ''But now....Now they are all broken dreams''. I just think it sounds better. Anyway, well done here and good luck in the contest.

    even though you have broken dreams, more will come.

    interesting thing about the human sprit, its very difficult to break.

    sexually assualted as well.

    I know its hard, but your taking steps to heal, and that means the world.
