Hush little girl, promise you won't tell,
Cause if you do, you'll go straight to Hell.
This will only hurt for a moment or so,
But you'll endure it till I decide to let you go.

You are such a little beauty, aren't you?
Let me show you what a man can do.
You will remember this in years to come,
You will never feel alive, only numb.

You are frightened now, but you'll relax,
Because I have planned many more attacks.
Your innocence is what I will take today,
I'll make sure your dreams are cast away.

You will become withdrawn and trust no one,
Once I'm finished having my fun.
You will long remember these days with me,
And only in confession will you be set free.

You will put away all your little girl things,
And never enjoy the beauty when a bird sings.
All thoughts and hopes you once had,
Will diminish with time, ah, too bad..

It excites me that you are only nine,
I cannot wait till I make you mine.
You will become a woman today,
Your innocence I am taking away.

Close your eyes tight, and maybe you won't see,
The monster that will haunt you through eternity.
Your nights will not be of sweet dreams,
Only nightmares and hearing your own screams.

Many might call this rape, you see,
I see you as my means to ecstacy.
Maybe God will forgive me, Angel, when I die,
For clipping your wings, so you couldn't fly..

You will one day be able to bear no more,
The secrets kept inside your soul will begin to pour.
Only then, will you be set free,
And become the Angel God meant for you to be.

Victims of rape or incest sometimes suffer in silence for years.They experience several types of behavorial problems such as, fear, guilt, anger, shame, embarrasment, lack of trust, and depression. There are so many resources available to these victims, and I will provide a link to some at the closing of this poem..If you are a victim of such abuse, or know someone that might be, please seek help and allow yourself to heal...to find your inner strength..to be at peace once and for all...
You need not soar alone...
