The Promise
A young girl,
Barely seven,
Gets on the school bus
With bruises covering her arms
And tears in her eyes.
A young girl,
Almost nine,
Sits in the corner of her room
And cries,
As her daddy shoots
And her mommy dies.
A teenage girl.
Of about fifteen,
Cries
When the doctor
Says those dreadful words.
A young woman,
Of twenty two,
Watches as her
Seven year old daughter
Gets on the bus for school.
They say I love you and smile,
As she promises to never hurt her child.
