Heart wrenching.... that there is so much abuse in the world directed towards children or anyone.  It needs to  STOP.Your poem, such a Passionately sad  portrait of a plea to understand a monstrous wrong.

 Terrific! One thing that's better about the modern world is that we can talk openly about child abuse, incest and so on. Before it certainly went on, but nobody dared to talk about it.

What a sensitive portrayal, and how true.....a brash exterior can hide so much fear and pain. God bless. Nita.
