My Biggest Regret...

by Amy   Oct 6, 2013


The screaming in the distance
Brought fear into my pale face,
You told me you loved that sound
That sound of pain for another person
Crying out for help and no one there
To rescue the poor thing.

I spat on your dirty face
But all you did was laugh
And throw me down and
Mocked me, humilated me
Took the only dignity I had left
To keep myself from cracking.

I started to wonder as we got nearer
"The Place" of sadness and terror.
I squirmed and tried to scream
But my mouth too dry to get the words out.
I couldn't move, the old man had his grip
He slapped me over the head and I knocked out

I came to in a beautiful room
Filled with satin and lace tapestry
It almost felt like home to me
Until the disgusting old man waddled in
To my room. Not showing any respect
He made me get out of bed and undid my clothes

I stood there naked, cold and
There to put a show on for him
He looked at me as a prize.
I felt more hatred for him now,
I was trained as a show girl
And payed to do evil tasks

I leave here now
Too old for this
Without money, food
Or someone to help me and,
My biggest regret would be,
That I left home for this.
