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 was better
i wish i wasnt ugly
then maybe my mommy would still want to hug me?
i cant speak at all
 i cant do a wrong
or else ill be locked up
allday long
when i awake im all alone
the house is always dark
my parents are never home
when my mommy does come il try and be nice
so maybe il just get one whipping tonight?
dont make a sound!
i just heard a car
my daddy is back from charlies bar
i hear him curse..my name he calls
i press myself against the wall
i try to hide from his evil eyes
im so afraid now
i start to cry
he fids me weeping
he shouts ugly words
he says its my fault he suffers at work
he slaps me and hits me
and yells at me more
i finally get free i run for the door
he,s already locked it
 i start to bawl
he takes me and throws me against the hard wall
i fall to the floor
withy my bones nearly broken
and yet my daddys abuse continues
with more bad words spoken
"im sorry"i scream
but now its much too late
his face is twisted
with rage and hate
the hurt and the pain happend again and again
oh please god have mercy
oh please let it end
and then finally he stops and heads for the door
while i lay there motionless
sprawled on the floor
my name is sarah
i am but three
and tonight
my daddy murderd me
