As I lie on my bed
Peace and seep
No where to be found
Tonight
Fear and dread
Mix
Together in my head
Worry
Concern
Too far away to help
What can I do from here?
A child
With childhood
Needs
And
Wants
Scared of a world
She doesn't now
She is alone
She is confused
Feeling unloved
Feeling unwanted
Thrown out by her mother
Rejected by her family
For standing up to the
Bully who beats her
Now placed in 'care'
In a place complete
Alien and alone
But!
I hope tonight
As she lies on that bed
She knows
There is one who
CARES

Real life always make the best poems.
