The Damage Done

Her little world shattered Dollies made of paper Heart and soul tattered Feelings turned to vapor A life now a wreck Brings innocence lost With love not a speck Just hatred the cost Alone on a sea Of guilt-laden woe No longer carefree It won't let her go Damaged goods here Childhood's been taken Forcing out a numb tear She just feels forsaken

Deb, it sounds like you are describing a child whose "innocense" was compromised by abuse. Surely, such a child will never again life carefree and carry undeserved feelings of guild with her forever. Such a heartfelt poem. Love, Carolyn
