Forever Silent

Forever silent,

to cry no more

never again to suffer

the blame he bestowed

Eternal beauty,

long golden curls,

eyes blue as midnight -

asleep for all time

Harsh words always

spoken, won\'t be

heard any more -

merciful angels have

carried her home

What grows inside a person

that allows them to abuse

such a precious child?

Stop the abuse.
