My dearest friend i can't believe,
what you've had to go through.
all the punches, smacks and slaps,
that have found their way upon you.
this is the first I've heard of it,
and it's left me in great shock,
knowing your parents hit you,
and abuse you a whole lot.
i met your parents just last week,
and i never would have guessed,
that they abuse my buddy,
a girl that deserves only the best.
i see you with a smile,
at least once everyday,
and if there's not one on your face,
i know somethings not OK.
I'm glad you told me this secret,
even though you didn't want to,
you don't want me to worry,
but girl you know I'm going to.
we tell each other everything,
all the good and all the bad.
even if we know,
it will make the other sad.
I'm glad you think your tough enough,
to get through this all alone.
but that doesn't mean i won't be there,
in case something should go wrong.
i met you this year,
and to me you mean the world,
i don't see how your parents,
could be mean to such a girl.
as I'm writing this I'm crying,
i can't believe this shit,
if only i could take your pain,
and just get rid of all of it.
i wish i could protect you,
from this unwanted pain,
but i don't know how to help,
and it's driving me insane.
every time i think of you,
being hit in any way,
i start crying immediately,
unless of course it was just for play.
to see you hurt,
to see you cry,
is hurting me so much,
and killing me inside.
I'm so sorry you go through this,
i wish there was something i could do,
I'll just have to promise,
I'll help you see this through.
i hope this poem helps you,
when you feel the way you felt,
after your dad smacked you,
with his heavy metal belt.
never think that dying,
can help you get away,
for your spirit might be in heaven,
but in my heart is where you'll stay.
