Forever Silent
Forever silent,
to cry no more
never again to suffer
the blame he bestowed
Eternal beauty,
long golden curls,
eyes blue as midnight -
asleep for all time
Harsh words always
spoken, won't be
heard any more -
merciful angels have
carried her home
What grows inside a person
that allows them to abuse
such a precious child?
Stop the abuse.
Lynn West

This poem is dedicated to the awareness of child abuse. Spread the word and stop the abuse.
