Children in pain

Just minding my own
All alone
Not knowing all that is around

It is a scary day
When a shadow crossed that day
To take me away

Sneaking his way into myself
Fingers and hands 
Groping about

Not sure what to do
I stay quiet and still
Not sure where to go

It follows me here
Nightmarish and scared
I left it aware

I want nothing from you
The rides or the food
The helping hand that harms

I will not bide my life
In those crazy crimes
I had no idea weren't mine

Thank you. Not my easiest write but relatable for many on many levels. Hopefully it helps cleanse my thoughts of the negatives I have had to experience and others as well.
