LISTEN
A poem by Joyce Alcantara.

There is a reflection of pain in her eyes, as she fights back tears.
Trying to figure out why she has put up with it all of these years.
Innocence gone.
Just taken away.
Struggling to deal with it & be free someday.
Tries to tell someone but no one believes her cries.
Just another young girl getting some attention through lies.
Suicide has crossed her mind but she will not go out that way.
Thinking well maybe if he can't find me, he just won't rape me today.
Perfect smile.
Broken soul.
Living in this situation that she just can't control.
Things get worse & he beats her more.
Loses all self respect for herself when he comes through that door.
Fed up & full of hope she tried to fight back.
He pulled out a knife, all she saw was black.
Out of her misery & out of her pain.
Put her in such a place that she can't even explain.
But she tried to tell someone although they didn't believe her cries.
Just maybe if someone would have listened...this young girl would still be alive.

I wrote this poem almost 10 years ago when I was 13, I am flattered to see that it was turned into a tattoo. Words cannot even begin to describe the beauty.

Your poem and the reference photo is such a match made in heaven. I saw the your poem through the child's eyes.

Most of the time, the real lessons in life are learned through the eyes and minds of little children who seem careless and innocent. Yet lets their souls speak and hoping the world would Listen.

Thank you for your poem. I'd love to read more!
