I wrote this to bring awareness to child abuse.
Broken And Abused Twinkle twinkle little star how we wonder who we are. Mommy and daddy live happy together, promise to love and cherish forever. Vows are broken children suffer, time doesn't heal, you only get tougher. Behind close doors secretes they hide, with smiles on the surface a clever disguise. Battered and shattered the hurt remains, futures altered tarnished and stained. By the ones they trusted it's all so sad, led to believe it was them that were bad. Broken and abused in silence they cry, concealing the truth as their childhood passes by. Written By Kathy J Parenteau Copyright © 07/04/2014

You are telling a sad story of many homes where great promises are broken. In spite of the lies that we tell children, they can sense when things are not right and can teach us a thing or two about how to get along.

Your poem makes me feel for the children this is happening to.

The abuse heaped on children is the worst kind.
But, get past it, we must!
Powerful words, Kathy.

Awareness brings about change Jerry. Voice what's in your heart. Even if it makes a difference to only one. What you have to say matters.
