Little JeromeA Poem by Nancy Lee Shrader
Child Abuse rains down to kill Innocence lost in pain and tears childhood laughter heard no more Scares carried for many years Blood is splattered on walls of chipping paint Little bone broken in abuse's wake Open hearts of ignorance today Stop this abuse for goodness sake No one sees what goes on behind closed doors Echoes of screams tell us when abusers come home Terrified eyes pleading for help Someone help little Jerome I'm no martyr, but I can see A life in pain and I can't let it be I must stand against violence today Or little Jerome will have to pay © 2008 Nancy Lee Shrader |
