a little girl lost, alone and afraid,
no one to hold her, to keep her from falling
pain filling up her every being
holding back tears, silently crying.
no more innocence, no dignity
that was all stolen
just brokenness, loss, pain
she just feels so worthless
they stripped her of everything
beat her into silence
bruises tell the tale
but nobody notices
so much shame, exposure
there is no way out
bound, held, trapped ...
an object of entertainment
living in the depths of hell
nobody knows
too scared to tell
hopelessness takes over
'they never broke me' i say
i wish it were true
but though i tried not to show it
the pain filtered through
they knew they were hurting me
they knew i was afraid
but in their twisted, cruel minds
it was all just a game.
