Devastating

Crouched in the darkened corner
Afraid their coming for her
Knowing it will, eventually, be a blur

Hands so hurtful
Minds so twisted
Devastatingly deeds showing sickness

Fragrances assaulting her nose
Waving slowly below
Shhh…..no one needs to know

transcending to another place
While fulfilling their disgusting desires
Her body treated that as waste

Sobbing, grabbing her face
Tears flowing from the disgrace
No longer her temple/sacred escape

Around the corner she will peak
Hoping everyone is fast asleep
Out the door she quickly creeps

Blackness to welcome her
Cloaking her desperate self
Walking the streets looking for help

Adverting the gates of hell
She’d climb up trees to dwell
Her heart sank further as she was so unwell

A child is to eventually crack
Ripped from her mothers grasp
Thrown into the flames of a fire

Years to loosen their grip
Time to slip on past each trip
Wondering why someone could be so evil-y sick

Forgiveness granted
Prayers ensued
It is the right thing to do

Bless their soul
Let their control loosen it’s hold
Rejecting everything told

She is NOW in her own CONTROL
Took her long enough; ya know
Beautiful to see her grow

nixing those people from her life
Best choice she could make; right
Living w/out all the heartache & strife

She cut all ties
No longer to believe their lies
Moving on as she throws them to the side

Only she was to save herself.
