[hometext] => About no one I ever knew, I made it up. Hope you like it.
[bodytext] => She lived in that little house on the corner
That little girl was so beautiful-
Everyone agreed.
No one would talk to her
They thought her to be strange
But I was convinced there was much more
I saw the storm in her eyes.
We finally spoke a few months back
She told me of her life
Everyday with tear stained cheeks
Marks of pain, lasting for weeks
I learned of the angry voices
And every brutal blow.
I wanted so badly to help-
Thought I'd done the right thing
But the screaming grew louder
And the hitting a lot harder.
I walked past her house the other day
An ambulance was in the street-
A little girl inside...
The medics shook their head
"It's no use," they said.
But I guess you never noticed
It was easier to turn your head.

| These thoughts i read in your earlier poem..but this it self is a new poem with a vivid painting of unknown she.. this is a good poetical work, captures my heart. but to me it is not easier to turn my head. I think the title does not attract your readers..but this is a good piece... venkat |

kara, OMG! I feel like SHE could be me, just without the sad ending. The little girl in the ambulance was me 7 years ago. So thank you, thank you so much. I cried while i read this over and over, but it was a good cry. That was the day i was saved. :O)
