My heart was broken as a child.
My innocence taken by a man all the while.
A friend of my mom's who was suppost to be nice.
Not the way I saw it as he threatened me with a knife.
I never told anyone.
Until I was almost twentyone.
For he threatened to kill my brother and my mother.
And without them I would have no other.
So I lived in my own little world.
What else could I do I was just a little girl.
I went through the motions over the years.
But inside I felt like I was dying,I was full of fear.
Then when I was older and thought that I was a little bit happy.
We moved in with our father and thought we were going to be happy.
But it didn't take him long.
To show me that I was very wrong.
For he took the rest of my heart away.
By touching and feeling in all sorts of ways.
I feel like my childhood was never there.
All I can remember is why no one cared.
How could my mom not take the time to see?
That what her friends and my father were doing to me.
I'm trying to get better each and every day.
Sometimes it just comes out flowing,sometimes there's nothing to say.
One day I will be completly better inside.
And then what's left of my heart I will no longer hide.
And then maybe I can show the love that my family deserves.
Instead of keeping it up against the curb.
     For one day I will be alive.
     Because if nothing else,I know I will survive.
