Blue Ribbon for Children


Sweet Jane 61

Recommended Posts

I was sent this email today from a friend. It is heart wrenching and you will cry and be angry but I feel it should be read by everyone. Feel free to copy and email to anyone. I hope no one takes offense, I just feel so strongly when it comes to the children of our world. We need to protect them always.

Solly

My name is Sarah

I am but three,

My eyes are swollen

I cannot see,

I must be stupid,

I must be bad,

What else could have made

My daddy so mad?

I wish I were better,

I wish I weren't ugly,

Then maybe my Mommy

Would still want to hug me.

I can't speak at all,

I can't do a wrong

Or else I'm locked up

All the day long.

When I awake I'm all alone

The house is dark

My folks aren't home.

When my Mommy does come

I'll try and be nice,

So maybe I'll get just

One whipping tonight.

Don't make a sound!

I just heard a car

My daddy is back

From Charlie's Bar.

I hear him curse

My name he calls

I press myself

Against the wall.

I try and hide

From his evil eyes

I'm so afraid now

I'm starting to cry.

He finds me weeping

He shouts ugly words,

He says its my fault

That he suffers at work.

He slaps me and hits me

And yells at me more,

I finally get free

And I run for the door.

He's already locked it

And I start to bawl,

He takes me and throws me

Against the hard wall.

I fall to the floor

With my bones nearly broken,

And my daddy continues

With more bad words spoken.

"I'm sorry!", I scream

But its now much too late

His face has been twisted

Into unimaginable hate.

The hurt and the pain

Again and again

Oh please God, have mercy!

Oh please let it end!

And he finally stops

And heads for the door,

While I lay there motionless

Sprawled on the floor.

My name is Sarah

And I am but three,

Tonight my daddy

Murdered me.

Peaches...I know how you feel...it took me 3 tries to get through the whole thing. I hate to hear stories of children being hurt in any way, I always have and I just think that sometimes the abuse of children is not punished enough. My little girl is my blessing and for anyone to harm her or any child is just not acceptable, never will be. I hope someday the laws become more appropiate for the abuse against children. Someday soon!

I remember somebody sent me this e-mail some time ago... I won´t read it again... :P I don´t understand some people, nor the world, nor plenty of things... I´ve never been beaten in my life, not even when I was a child, and just like Uncle Joe, it makes me want to hurt someone...

I totally understand and I posted this so it could maybe be passed on. Just want people to be aware, and I know all of you are but so many people aren't which is so surprising. We have ribbons for so many causes in this world, this one is long overdue. I must sound like I am preaching but children are the innocents of our world and our future.

Some people from my department in college took part in a workshop that taught them about child molestation and incest. We went for a presentation last year as well and I did learn a lot about the subject. This was a poem that they circulated on their internet group, so I saw it there and a lot ofother people did too nd it did have quite a profound effect on most.
