My name is Sarah I am but three, My eyes are swollen I cannot see, I must be stupid I must be bad, What else could have made My daddy so mad? I wish I were better I wish I were not ugly, Then maybe my mommy Would still want to hug me. I cannot speak at all I cannot do a wrong Or else I am locked up All the daylong. When I awake, I am all alone The house is dark My folks are not home When my mommy does come I'll try and be nice, So maybe I will get just One whipping tonight. Do not make a sound! I just heard a car My daddy is back From Charlie's Bar. I hear him curse My name he calls I press myself Against the wall I try to hide From his evil eyes I am so afraid now I am starting to cry He finds me weeping He shouts ugly words, He says it is my fault That he suffers at work. He slaps me and hits me And yells at me more, I finally get free And I run for the door. He has already locked it And I start to bawl, He takes me and throws me Against the hard wall. I fall to the floor With my bones nearly broken, And my daddy continues With more bad words spoken. "I'm sorry!” I scream But it’s now much too late His face has been twisted Into unimaginable hate The hurt and the pain Again and again Oh please God, have mercy! Oh please let it end! And he finally stops And heads for the door, While I lay there motionless Sprawled on the floor My name is Sarah And I am but three, Tonight my daddy Murdered me!
And you can help, Sickens me to the soul, And if you read this and don’t pass it on, I pray for your forgiveness Because you would have to be One heartless person To not be effected By this Poem And because u r effected, Do something about it! So all I ask you to do is pass this on, IF YOU ARE AGAINST CHILD ABUSE!!
