A child dies every day from child abuse.


SHE WAS ONLY 5
her dad was a drunk
Her mom was an addict
Her parents kept her
Locked in an attic
Her only friend
was a little toy bear
It was old and worn out
And had patches of hair
She always talked to it
When no one's around
She lays there and hugs it
Not a peep of sound
Until her parents
unlock the door
Some more and more pain
She'll have to endure
A bruise on her leg
A scar on her face
Why would she be
In such a horrible place?
But she holds her bear
And softly crys
She loves her parents
But they want her to die
She sits in the corner
Quiet but thinking,
"Please God, why is
My life always sinking?"
Such a bad life
For a sad little kid
She'd get beaten and beaten
For anything she did
Then one night
Her mom came home high
And the poor child was beaten
As hours went by
Then her mom suddenly
Grabbed for a blade
It was sharp and pointy
One that she made
She thrusted the blade
Right in her chest,
"You deserve to die
You worthless piece of sh**!"
The mom walked out
Leaving the girl slowly dying
She grabbed her bear
And again started crying
Police showed up
At the small little house
Then quickly barged in
Everything quiet as a mouse
One officer slowly
Opened a door
To find the little girl
Lying dead on the floor
It must have been bad
To go through so much harm
But at least she died
With her best friend in her arms

A child dies every day from child abuse.

National Voice for Children

National Voice for Children


To be the voice for a child, to help bring a lost or missing child home. Are we not here to help each other? What happened to being more than neighbors? what happened to being friends? Looking out for one another because you had a big heart? So many children, and adults too, go missing each day. It makes me so mad and makes my heart ache that with the number of people on this earth that no one has seen these individuals. And I wonder if anyone really looks anymore. If you see a child alone in the store do you walk away? Do you pretend you didn't see? I can't do that, I have to stay there until someone comes back. I really don't give a damn if someone thinks I'm nuts because I'm there. If it helps keep their child safe I'm all for it. Maybe if people would actually still believe that the children are our next generation, OUR FUTURE, and treat them as such by looking after them no matter where you are then the world might be a better place. Then again maybe I'm just a meddling mother myself whose scared at the rising numbers of missing kids and teens that just seemingly drop off the face of the earth.


Nah that's not it, I think it's really shitty that Sarah Jane or Little Mikey can just disappear and not be seen. Open your damn eyes people, somebody saw them, somewhere! Stand up and be a role model for the next generation! Don't cower behind your cell phone with your blinders on like some damn fool.


Just remember the next generation will be taking care of you in your old age.


How do you want to be treated?
