Oh you seek me out my father
causing me pain is your delight.
The blade of your sin pierces my heart
and has deepened the darkened night.

I cower with fear in the corner
only a door stands before my eyes
but I hear your tread upon the floor
and my body is racked with cries.

Why have you forsaken me mother?
How is it that you cannot know?
Your little girl is dying inside,
her death both painful and slow.

The secret is far to heavy,
this bad thing not meant to be.
Your sin is far to much to bear
for such a little one as me.

Oh my daddy please forgive me
for tempting you this way.
If only I had not been born
you'd have had no cause to stray.

I hate you yet I love you,
this should not have been my role
Sins of the father befall me
and corrupt this wee childs soul.

childomine: charmingly depressing... it's really very sad that this type of things goes on daily in situations that no one would ever suspect...

sadly & sincerely,
jerome the boy with the blue thumb

 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
~Coleridge

my words fail me...I am moved beyond expression by this.Thank you for the courage to share this with us.
Take Care, Janet Marie

 Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme,
They are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be described by words,
Forgiveness and understanding-
remain the most beautiful words ever heard.

Oh hon what an awful thing for any girl to experience, a father's arms should be a safe haven, not a perverted palace of fear.  If you ever need to talk you know where I am.
But for now (HUGS)

 Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.
