Listen
Swirling mists of distruction,
hanging over my brain,
tears falling down my cheeks,
seep in acid rain,
and claw like talons,
petrude my bleeding heart,
and razor like eyes,
look to tear me apart,
this nightmare of demons,
willing me to die,
i shout and scream,pray and cry,
this is the pain of a child being used,
this is the child being abused,
protect our children call out the truth,
an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
