A child lost
It never happened it was a dream
A never ending nightmare.
I Close my eyes and it will disappear
And Like me, maybe it isn’t realThe pain
The shame
The terrorThe whispers in the darkened room
The fear of imminent doom
I Close my eyes and it will disappear
And Like me, maybe it doesn’t existThe guilt
The sights
The horrorThe weight so heavy it will catch your breath
The act as final as in death
I Close my eyes and it will disappear
And Like me, maybe it’s not trueThe sounds
The lies
The smellsThe dread of the opening door
Of hiding under covers on the floor
I Close my eyes and it will disappear
And Like me, maybe it will dieThe fear
The scars

in the shadows
never daring to show itself
never daring to make a soundwith the eyes of the child
and yet, the wisdom
far beyond , far beyond their years
the child, the child that never wasthe childhood lost
in a mist of grey, a fog
that is the way
it always goes today
tommorow
and forever.hidden eyes,
hidden tears
that carry that child
through all the years
the stolen childhood
the fear the dread
the body abused
may wish it was deadthe child that stays
and who’s body grows
into adulthood
and maybe who knows
the grey will
the tears will
the hurt will
fade into time.9 March, 2008 at 8:39 pm #316946did you write that yourself cath ?
