Little Angel

I was just a baby and not even one
look mommy and daddy, look what have you done

You hit me abuse me, even I was small
I'll never understand why you did that for?

I was all in bruises, I was all in pain,
I was beaten up, again and again

I suffer neglect beating up, and more.....
to your little baby why you did that for?

You gave life to me, was the reason why?
Why didn't you love me? Why you let me die?

Wished to be somebody, do good things in life
but I had no chance I couldn’t survive

God took me to heaven God took care of me
as a little angel I am finally free

Now I fly with angels in the sunny sky
And ask them with tears why I had to die?

I miss mommy and daddy, even they were bad
I’m not even angry,  I’m not even sad

Time will come one day they see me again
And then I will ask them if they can explain 

Why you didn’t love me, why you let me die,
Why you let me suffer? Will you tell me why?

Now I’m little angel I will never cry
Oh mommy and daddy
Why you let me die...

This poem is for beautiful baby BRIANNA, she died on July 19, 2002, 
from the hands of her parents and her uncle, she was only 5 months and 5 days old baby..... 
It's hard to hold tears to watch the video.......

At the same time, it's for all the children suffering any kind of abuse....

Deeply touching; it makes me cry reading it. It's a powerful indictment of child abuse. I'm confident, though, that divine justice will prevail.

This poem was very sad and so moving, it really tugged at my heart.... An innocent child does not deserve this kind of treatment, but unfortunately, this abuse happens on a daily basis.... You wrote so very well on a tough subject. Really great work, Elizabeth!
