Abuse

You can beat, scream, and harm
Pretty soon she won't be around
Go ahead and break her arm
The bruises will never be found

Everything has been repressed
Another morning, left to forget
As she walks to school, heavily dressed
With everything in mind, that he won't regret

Pain seeps from within
Hiding deep inside
She refuses to let anyone in
All her tears have been dried

Breaking down
From the inside out
She is always wearing a frown
No one understands what she is about

She prays on her knees, every night
For him to realize he's wrong
With her eyes shut tight
And her hands held together strong

Poor little girl, poor little child
Believes she doesn't deserve anyone beside
I don't think she's ever smiled
She's oh so very close to suicide
