Dear Little girl

Dear little girl,

You would have already been asleep

But you’ll wake up by the old door creek

He will ask to sleep next to you- in darkness

Yet, he’ll get closer to you regardless

 

Dear little girl,

Say goodbye to your childhood

Because he will take it away for good

Your innocence he will take

All because he felt an ache

 

Dear little girl,

It will not be your fault

Because what he will do to you is an assault

You will feel something wrong; dirty and ugly

Because he will say, “don’t tell anyone”, smugly

 

Dear little girl,

He will feel like the man

And you would have wished you could have ran

But he would have crushed you down with his weight

And then you’ll be feeling so much hate

 

Dear little girl,

You will feel broken

And you’d wish to have spoken

But time would have passed

And no one would have asked

 

Dear little girl,

You will have spoken after years of hurting

But people who vowed to protect will not be supporting

So, now you will look as the one who’s a liar

And no one will believe of his sexual desire

 

Dear little girl,

Now, ten years will pass

But you will still feel like a pane of glass

He is out there, free and innocent

And the family you will lose, will never be intimate

 

Dear little girl,

He will take away your voice

All because he wouldn’t have given you a choice

So now you’ll feel lost

And never be able to trust on men-at all cost

 

Dear little girl,

Will this be your fate?

Or is it already too late?

See! You still have that chance

To stay away from his hypnotic trance

 

Dear little girl,

You will not want your existence

And to people you love, you will remain at a distance

But I’ll tell you a secret, that life will get better

Because I am here, that I have written this letter.

 

Dear little girl,

You will not feel alone

And your heart will not remain stone

For there will be someone out there,

Who will help you-once again-breathe air
