Sin

Sin

Sin, What is sin?
Is it when you raped me over and over again
as I would scream and cry begging you to stop.
Is it when you tied me to the basement floor asking me if I wanted more.
Is it when you burned my flesh with red hot spoons,
or is it when you smashed my head with the broom.
Is it when you took fish hooks every time you were mad Stuck them in so very bad.
Is it when you took the paneling boards across my back
which turned ever so black.
Is it the bruise's you leave, the scars you make.
This is only my fate.
Is it the lies you tell,
my body has become so frail.
Sin is all around,
I wont make a sound.
I promise I'll die and never be found.

Dear Jesus, I pray this is only a dark poem and not an experience. If it is, God can heal the deepest of scars that the devil tries to leave. Either way, this moved me. God bless.

Perfect title to this poem.  Jesus said< "whoa unto those who harm these little ones."

Yes this was my childhood, I struggle everyday to let go. I know that we need to keep awareness open on child abuse, because it is the one thing most people hide. Please remember that a scared child will always be jumpy, very shy, and will cover there scars, bruises and there pain up. Please stand up against child abuse.
