Poem.

Tears roll down a battered face

Salt stings the open wounds

A broken girl lies on the ground

No hope. No love. No escape.

Betrayed. Battered. Beaten.

No love for she whose broken

And no one stops to lend a hand

No kind words ever spoken.

    Love this poem, Katie. It almost broke my heart.
    What a heartfelt read this is – you’re a talented poet, girl.

    perfect imagery – and such a true statement on our society – so sad
