After he beats

when he makes me play
the secret
sticky fingers game
daddy says
if I show and tell
me and my mum
will go to hell
coz daddy says
all he has to do
is shake and cry
and say sorry
and those nice people

A Childs nightmare written by the adult they became. A reminder that things are not always as they appear..and we all have our secrets.
It is unfair to judge others when we cannot know what goes on behind their closed doors.
Your poem brings out the desire to be kind and accepting of strangers although it may not have been your intent. Your words reach the compassion in your readers.

Wow, very powerful write
A tricky subject to deal with, but dealt with cleverly and thoughtfully
Really drives home the message!!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
