yes, this write is very awed. what isn't said, is what they need, what they say, isn't at all what they mean. How often I've been put in that situation of those who will say that exact thing and really need your help, often protecting the one who did this. A sad but reality write of many who go thru this, and have so... can relate very well.......

I love this one. It's very unique in it's style. The subject of child abuse and the inner fear, panic and pain of the child is nicely expressed.

How can something so beautiful be born from something so horrific? Totally terrifying, very powerful and hopefully will reach one person that will refuse to let this happen to a child in need out of sheer apathy or fear of reprisal to themselves.

Firstly, you wrote well. But I hope that this is not happening round you... People sometimes will act strong. What is said may not bethe truth... But we cant blame them... Can others really help when we tell them the truth? We all try to solve our own problems... If someone really wanna help, they should find the answers themselves if we want them to. Or leave it for us to solve it ourself

i know what its like
the school, they ask if you want a councelor
they say that they can help
but they never really hear you saying, pleading, screaming "help me" do they
and when you're so scared to speak
its like thats when they are at their deafest

I completely feel this poem. It's as if I'm in it, sounds like me, the kid saying help me. It's like you want to ask, but you cant tell anyone anything. I mean my parents dont physically attack me, well not often... but mental attacks are made everyday and I'm tempted to slit the wrists because of the welts on my brain...sorry. I feel this poem as if I'm that kid wanting to say help me, but jsut not asking.

That was very sad. I really liked it though. I have witnessed a few who were abused. It's really sad. There are many different ways of abuse. It's just plain old cold no matter what. Loved the style you written this poem in. Very different and unique. Oringally excellent. And hope whoever this person his gets help. Wishes the best for David or you. Well, have a nice day :)

This brought tears to my eyes when I read it. You have a really great talent. I hope that you get help with whatever it is that you are keeping inside of you and always remember you can do all things through christ who loves you know matter who you are or what you have done. Just remember that he died on the cross for your sins.

This poem is so sad, but what makes it more sad, is because it is true...Wonderfully written

It can be so hard to voice the help one needs, especially when one is abused (and they are usually threatened with more if they speak out regarding the abuse). Society needs to learn how to listen better, not with only their ears but with their eyes and hearts as well. Profound write.

That's good. It speaks to me. It's scary though, that people would have guts to do that stuff, but hopefully they also have guts to get put in jail for life instead of just a slap on the wrist... Great Poem! Jenny

Wow... amazing. The poem itself is so sharp and biting, but the title seems a bit drawn out and does nothing to impact the poem... might change it to something a little more concise.

I've seen a lot of children afraid to ask for help..
The eyes i think certainly show when someone is crying out for help.
Great write.

I've avoided the poems with most reads simply because of the fact that they had so many. I see now that the majority of poets did know a good poem when they saw it. This brought tears to my heart. It was truly an amazing piece.
Take care.

An excellent portrayal of the conflicting impulses in victims of child abuse - the screaming inner voice born of need and the spoken one of denial, born out of fear. A powerful insight.

I found this very upsetting and painful to read, NOT because I have had any experience of it but how it was written ... Excellent write
and hits the heart deep deep within ... Now if only it opens peoples eyes to what can be going on right under their noses .... and even ONE of us gives that help cried out for ....

Amazing

Your poem does speak volumns... I work at a court house and unfortunately, not only there but in the media... we hear about this type of crime ALL THE TIME. It's sad to know there are helpless children too afraid to answer the most important question of there lives with honesty.
