Cry for help


Stop, Still, Waiting To be heard To be wanted Freed from the tears, and the disappointments Stop, Still, Waiting Devoured by the darkness Another smile I'm faking Drowning in the scars My heart is aching Stop, Still, Waiting When will it end? The abuse, the neglect, the raping All in one, everyday My hands, my feet are shaking Stop, Still, Waiting Deprived of my innocence Feeling disgusted No!! Please!! Again, molested Corrupted, insulted Exhausted. Stop, Still, Waiting A child ill- treated, Victimized, prostituted I plea, I beg But i have no right Disrespected. Stop, Still, Waiting.
