A WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING
Deep beneath the smiles
Of an innocence so true
There lay a deep despair
And a hate for all she knew
Her little face would crumble
Every time he came around
She tried to blend into the walls
And wouldnât make a sound
But no matter where she hid
He would seek her out like prey
Heâd find her and heâd fuss her
In the room sheâd have to stay
Her Mother was quite taken
Her Father even more
This beast was most beguiling
He had played this game before
âYouâre such a lucky couple
To have a daughter thatâs so sweet
You really are the cutest
She is good enough to eat!â
Just like the big bad wolf
He would take her to his lair
He would groom her and heâd force her
Shed a tear and say a prayer
And so this carried on
The beauty and the beast
But this was no dream fairytale
He the devil; she his feast!!
Then one day she buckled
Couldnât take the weight no more
Heâd become the beast of burden
She just cowered on the floor
Her Mother she was scared
And cradled her so tight
âWhat has happened to my baby
Let me help you with your plight!â
But her baby she just lay there
Curled up lost within her arms
Thinking theyâd believe the lies
Him and his wicked charms
Her Mother was now worried
And she called the Father home
The father turned up with the beast
Now was his cover blown?
From the corner of a tearstained eye
The little girl did see
Her nemesis walk in the room
To the corner she did flee
Falling in a heap
And curling up so tight
She let out an almighty scream
One that filled the room with fright
âNo!!â she wailed, as the beast came forth
Her Mother took a turn
âYou!!â her mother cried
As she feared of what she'd learn
The father now was looking
He could not believe his ears
âNo, look youâve got it wrong!â
The beast let out a sneer
There was no need to say a word
The parents now they knew
Their child that they had cherished
Was destroyed; no longer true
As the beast he fled the room
The fatherâs blade it did now reign
He finished off that big bad wolf
The beast he was now slain....

Such a sad story! The one I have is from the healing side in 'Torn And Tattered" and "Our Disgrace" was about abuse of the father. So I know the feelings and they are a shame that some must feel them. You always write very well and your story telling is at the top also. Good job, Anthony
