[bodytext] => 4:14 AM 3/23/2005 Little girl inside her room Locked away from everyone She cannot dig in dirt She cannot fly a kite She cannot learn to ride a bike She isn’t allowed to go out to run. Window boarded keeping out the sun Birdie’s chirp outside on green tress Hope is needed with her today. She hears fighting in the room Glass is shattering to little bits Screams echoing through the walls Sitting in her “special corner” she escapes Wild flowers grow up from the floor The door is covered in vines of protection A waterfall runs from her closet to her bed Butterflies all colors and shapes flutter around “POOF” the safety is gone. Banging continues on her door Afraid to see what’s on the other side Slowly she opens it a crack each minuet He comes raging through like a blood eyed bull Fallen to the floor she curls up in a ball Numbness builds around her heart Shutting down the world around her Wishing this cruelty would disappear.
