What was there left of her <br />after the bad men touched her? <br />What fragile sense of wonder shattered? <br /> <br />Where were her mommy and daddy <br />when they came for her? <br />Where was the promised safety? <br /> <br />What meaning did the tears have <br />as she cried herself to sleep each night? <br />Thinking thoughts of unspent rage? <br /> <br />What broken dreams caught her up <br />and sped her away to a place she was happy? <br />So that she could smile again? <br /> <br />Where did all the violence go <br />after she picked up the twelve gauge? <br />So that she could make the smile come true?<br /><br />Poet Dragon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/rape-9/
