Reality
March 30, 2012
As a kid growing up,
she always had at least one bump.
When she was in class,
she hid the cuts from the glass.
As she tried to snooze,
he came in and gave her a bruise.
As she hides the pain, people start to wonder,
they then let social workers take over.
Getting beaten or shoved by a man,
it should not be a contraband.
The little girl age 14,
Finally let out a helping scream.
