Dedicated to All the Abused Children Everywhere.
Child of the nighttime
Where do you go
When life becomes unbearable
Because of all you know?
Who is accountable
For all the damage done
To such a small child like you
After the setting sun?
Who is there to hear
The breaking of a heart
When trust is broken
And a world is torn apart?
Who is there to stop
The anguished cries that come
When a child becomes aware
There is no place to run?
Who is there to speak
On her behalf
As crimes are committed
In the presence of wrath?
Who is there to calm
The hitching of the breath
When all hope is lost
And the child faces death?
Who is there to wipe
The tears from her face
And hold her so gently
In a warm embrace?
Where is the anger
And where is the rage

When a child is raped
And left in a daze?
Who dares to cut
And maim a child of seven
Who believes she has
The right to enter heaven?
Where was God
When all of this occurred?
There was a loss of innocence
And childhood deferred.
Why was she chosen
To endure all this pain?
Why was she given
The burden of this shame?
She tried so hard to please
The one’s who broke her heart.
They stole from her, her laughter
Right from the start.
How long must she endure
Bad memories of the past
Before she is able
To be free at last?
