Until society realizes the life sentence a pedophile gives to a child then why should the judicial system take it seriously?
Unless the child has been raped and/or murdered society remains somewhat silent.
Memories
Amid my childhood memories a place so dark and bleak
My brain had locked it solidly so it’s evil could not leak.
I try to go there now and then each step I take with fear
Yet my brain still stops me- just as I draw near.
Though locked away so solidly they seep into my life
They touch each happy moment with a tinge of strife
They stand so boldly in my way of trusting any friend
So many times I cry at night “will this ever end?”
How to purge away the guilt, to clean away the soil?
I cannot make myself feel clean no matter how I toil.
I’ve lived a life of no esteem not feeling I had worth
Feeling there’s no place for me here upon this earth.
My innocence and childhood was ripped away from me
Tho I yearn for pure sweet love-how can my heart be free?
