~A BENT SOUL~

Words from my heart

An evil precense filled the room,

her time had come to be abused;

Submisive, her huge heart she gave,

and pleased them, just as any slave.

~

She closed her eyes as they began,

and clenched her chubby, dimpled hands;

She utterd not a single word,

though shattered was this little girl.

~

A small tear trinkled down her cheek,

a sign they said proved she was weak;

And so this precious, loving child,

forgot to laugh, and play, and smile.

~

They did more harm than they would know,

and now she stays at home, alone;

Her Spirit bent, her Heart is broke,

she gave up several years ago.

~

She feels the pain of worthlesness,

a feeling she can n'er forget;

And when she says her prayers at night,

she prays that they will be alright.

The poem told a sad story. A lot of hidden pain in the words. I like how you ended the poem.
"And when she says her prayers at night,
she prays that they will be alright."
