A little girl sat and looked up at the sky
Blew a kiss into the air and started to cry
Her childhood lost, her innocence torn
The world wondered why she looked so forlorn
Shut her eyes quickly and remembered the pain
The day her virtue was taken in vain
Her tears like a stream ran down her cheek
Her breath was lost, forgotten how to speak
She felt her joy stolen, her spirit exposed to the sun
Remembered the day she lost her passion to run
Covered herself with a smile but still felt his breath
The world gave her life but all she wanted was death
Opened her eyes and found the strength to stare
Gazed into the clouds but they were not there
She once saw images pass through the sky
But now they are gone and the girl wonders why
Why did he take it? How could he dare
Disassemble her soul and never once care
The little girl sat and looked up at the sky
Now forsaken and broken a tear in her eye

Poetry is a good way to let go of emotions.  Your doing a good job with your poem.

Very touching write.
I'm not sure what you're writing about. The idea of rape came to mind but I may be all wrong......

Nice images!

you are precious, significant, brilliant, inspiring and worth every moment that life can give you.  

Allow no one to take possession of you to the extent that you would hurt this much.  Love is all powerful, mature, kind, responsible, caring more for others then itself.  Anything in the opposite direction is not love.  And no one but no one can take away your innocence, unless you allow it.  You are in control my friend.  If someone causes you this much pain, run, and never ever look back, b/c you've lost nothing, but more so, gained a million dollars for the rest of your life, and you will meet someone when the time is right, who will be showered and complimented by your presence in his life.

Your precious heart is worth anything which anyone gives you in a positive nature...someone who will allow you to progress along your path, realizing he not there to possess you, but to walk with you by your side, allowing you to be...who you are, and that is one very significant person.  

Love and hugs
