Sarah's Poem
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 parents so mad?
I wish I were better
I wish I weren't ugly
~
Then maybe my mommy
would still want to hug me.
~
I can't speak at all
I can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long.
~
When I awake I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home.
~
When my parents do come
I'll try and be nice
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight
~
Don't make a sound!
~
I just heard a car
My parents are back
From Charlie's Bar
~
I hear them curse
My name they call
I press myself
Against the wall
~
I try and hide
From their evil eyes
~
I'm so afraid now
I'm starting to cry
~
They find me weeping
The shout ugly words
They say its my fault
That they suffer at work
~
They slap me and hit me
And yell at me more
I finally get free
And I run for the door
~
They've already locked it
And I start to bawl
They take me and throw me
Against the hard wall
~
I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken
And my parents continue
With more bad words spoken
~
"I'm sorry!" I scream
But its now much too late
Their faces are twisted
Into unimaginable hate
~
The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!
~
And they finally stop
And head for the door
While I lay there motionless
Sprawled on the floor
~
My name is Sarah
And I am but three
Tonight my parents
Murdered me
