“The Unheard Cry”

She comes home but feels so alone.

her bruises tell the story of a pain she only knows.

She screams but no one hears.

The fright in her eyes when her father’sfist hits her face. In her home this is what takes place.

 All by herself curled up she cries.

 Her spirit dies as she waits for the night to be done.Though she knows she has never won. what kind of life is this?

She screams and pleads, she begs and bleeds.

She yearns to feel safe and free.

will that every be.
