Let her go
No one notices
No one knows
silenced by night
Soothed by the dark
No one can sleep
With a broken heart
Kindly she stands there
Angry in pain
She cant let it show
She cant bare the pain
Her father he loves her
Deep down inside
But his feelings of hurt show
In the bruises they cant hide [comments] => 5 [counter] => 223 [topic] => 23 [informant] => rosewoodtree [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )

Bruises

Topic: FamilyPoems

Scream at her
Let her go
No one notices
No one knows
silenced by night
Soothed by the dark
No one can sleep
With a broken heart
Kindly she stands there
Angry in pain
She cant let it show
She cant bare the pain
Her father he loves her
Deep down inside
But his feelings of hurt show
In the bruises they cant hide

This is a painful poem of fighting and abuse. And depending on your age, things could have been different, I know in my days being hit around wasn't all that big of a deal, spankings was the things, and in front of people, heck it was never hid, but not now, it is abuse, and it is a good thing to a point, brusing is to far, to rough, that is abuse in my eyes, don't remember my folks loosing it to the point of bruises, so I am sorry to read this poem and read where this father seems to do that;
