she was seven years old (against child abuse)

bruises on her skin has people wondering,

smile on her face but pain in her eyes

.Seven years old and her mom and dad beat her every night.

she goes to school but never tells a soul.

teacher see the bruises notice the cover up around her eye but they never seem to ask what happened.

Seven years old and her mom and dad beat her everyday after school.

Until one night they hit her way to hard and to many times her little body could not handle the pain.

She wasnt in Class the next day.

Maby if some one would have took the time to ask about her bruises, if some one would have just took a moment out of there day to ask why she would have cover up on her face maby the little girl would still be here today

i wrote this poem to the song Alyssa lies

Ah, that's definitely a heartbreaking song and a sorrowful piece. As already pointed out, there are some spelling errors. I wonder if it'd work to change up the formatting just a bit, so it doesn't all blur together. Otherwise, nice job taking on something that hits close to so many people.

Its such a sad poem and subject. Thank you for the read. My only complaint- some of the spelling is off.
