Child Abuse Poem From April

by April
(California, USA)

Rag Doll 
The door closed behind the man,
as the girl sat quietly on her bed.
Her parents had gone to work and
their friend came to visit.

He brought her a new rag doll, with
brown hair and pretty blue dress.
He told her family just how much
he loved the girl’s bubbly smile…

He took her to the park first,
and he took her to the zoo,
then he took off her panties,
to play this new adult game.

She thought about the swings,
she thought about the animals,
while the man used her,
like a lifeless rag doll.

Now the girl had a secret,
that she could never tell a soul.
A dark shadow in her little soul,
was growing into a black hole…

The man left, but didn't stay away for long...
He phoned often to remind her the shame,
And each time he came visit in her home,
always with a new pretty rag doll.
