My name is Sarah

I personally didn't write this but this is a really good poem and its very sad.

My name is Sarah

I am but three

My eyes are swollen i cannot see

i must be stupid, i must be bad

what else could have made my daddy so mad

i wish i were better

i wish i weren't ugly

then maybe mommy would still want to hold me

i can't do a wrong

i can't speak at all

or else i am locked up all day long

when i'm awake i am all alone

the house is dark

my parents arent home

when mommy does come home

i will try to be nice

so maybe i'll just get one whipping tonight

shhh. i heard a car

daddys back from charlies bar

i hear him curse my name he calls

i press myself against the wall i try to hide

from his evil eyes i am so scared now i am starting to cry

he finds me weeping and calls me ugly words

he says its my fault he suffers at work

he slaps and hits me and yells at me more

i finally get free and run to the door, he's already locked it and i start to bawl

he takes me and throws me against the cold hard wall

i fall to the floor with my bones nearly broken and my daddy continues with more bad words spoken

i am soory i scream but its now much too late

his face has been twisted into unimaginable hate

the hurt and the pain again and again, o god please have mercy

please just let it end, he finally stops and heads for the door

while i lay there motionless sprawled on the floor

My name is sarah, i am but three, tonight my daddy murdered me.

 

In memory of sarah RIP :(
