The Looking Glass

by Brittany   Apr 19, 2005


The Looking glass so clear.
I look back at memories unwanted
memories burning wholes in my broken heart
the screaming growing louder
unbearable for mortal ears
I see shattering glass, the blood on the perfect white walls.
My mommy worked so hard on them.
my attention is drawn to crying in a corner.
Crystal tears drip to the floor.
"mommy and daddy are always fighting"
A whisper so faint
another crash and more blood
The courage of the figure in the corner leaped out
The figure was me
"STOP IT! STOP FIGHTING!! I HATE THIS!!"
I screamed
Shoved to the ground daddy comes over and pulls his pants down
he screamed "YOU DARE DEFY ME!?"
His blood stained hands pressing shoulders to the floor.
Mommy isn't moving.
she can't. The pain is too strong.
Daddy's moans overpower my screams
just like his body over mine.
My body soiled and rotten
mommy never moved from that spot on the floor
Until she was taken away
i layed next to her, and daddy left with two men in black uniforms
I never saw him again
He did that to me more than once
and he will never do it again
not to anyone
The looking glass clouded and my thoughts drained from my mind
Wholes in my heart will never ever be filled.
