Why does it not end?
Ninety percent
Can be prevented.
But who would try
To end the way they're treated.
Nobody knows
Most of the time.
It is well-hidden
This horrid crime.
The victim's don't know
How to end it.
They are so young
They have to submit.
Submitting to pain
Unbearable wrath.
Sometimes so bad
They consider death.
Death coming to them
By their own hand.
They do not know
God has a plan.
They will be saved
But they do not know.
How can it stop
Hurting them so?
So know the signs,
School, home, and social.
Know each child
Because it can be fatal.
Know they can hide it
Know that some don't.
Know how to help them
When others won't.
Depression and bruises,
Bad grades and behavior.
Child abuse will always
Put them in danger.
