Array ( [sid] => 70833 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => CHILD OF RAPE [time] => 2004-11-09 18:01:22 [hometext] => HOW CAN I HELP THIS CHILD [bodytext] => He was a child who's body was
raped from birth,
Abused and neglected was he.
His dreams of man hood he
shall never find.
He is just twelve now with
parents of crime.

Never has he known a life
without rape.

It is imbedded in to his soul.
He fears his life and every
night.
He is made to perform like a
actor on a stage.
He plays his role,
Waiting for them to be done
with him.

His body.
His Sex.

He is dying alone.
His dreams he has none,
But death would be a welcome
friend to his soul.

He is but a child with parents
of crime.
Who sell,
His sex,
His body,
For a dime.

He is just a child he has a soul.

But the rape of his body is a
death untold

CHILD OF RAPE

He was a child who's body was

Abused and neglected was he.
His dreams of man hood he
shall never find.
He is just twelve now with
parents of crime.

Never has he known a life

It is imbedded in to his soul.
He fears his life and every

Waiting for them to be done

His body.

Very powerful and filled with all different emotions. I love your poetry and i will look for more of your poems. They have this deep sensual touch about them that makes you really think about the message that it is sending out.

Blessed be

wow very powerful remind me of what happend to me just not by parents. You should get this guys some help, social services or take him in yourself. Get him as far away from the situation as possible. you should get him to see a shrink or at least let him try and talk to someone he trusts. He;s going to have problems when he's older. Tust me.

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. ©
