She blew five candles <br /> On her cake, angel <br />In a pink dress, hair <br /> In little pigtails <br />Bound in pink ribbons <br /> <br />She was daddy's <br />Apple of the eye, <br />They had little <br />Secrets and stories <br />Tiny, tattles and tizzies <br /> <br />He tucked her to <br /> Bed every night, <br />Kissed her forehead <br />As she slept, . <br />Lovingly fondled <br />Between her legs <br /> <br />Bittie body bruised, <br />Small soul soiled, <br />Little heart hurt, <br />Bambino bosom bled, <br />Dainty dreams dead. <br /> <br />Little one is scared, <br />It is all her fault <br />Or so she is told, <br />Daddy wont love her <br />If their playful <br />Secret is let out <br /> <br />She bleeds inside, <br />Cant play on the slide, <br />Childhood denied, <br />Crayons cast aside, <br />Daddy and demon coincide. <br /> <br />Terrified, eyes open wide, <br />Home colder than winter tide, <br />Nightmares she cant brush aside, <br />She has everything to hide, <br />Who the hell is on her side? <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />(This does not come from my personal experience..I felt I had to write these lines when I read this in the news.Dedicated to all the little souls who were raped by their father....my heart goes out for them)<br /><br />Reshma Ramesh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/daddy-s-darling/
