You seek safety here.
Inside I will shelter you.
Only for awhile.
I see the pain in your eyes.
I hear the question why me.
You are only five.
A child with too many worries.
You flinch in your fear.
My heart aches, my anger burns.
What type of mind abuses kids?
You ask to stay here.
My tears swell when I say no.
You must live at home.
The hurt burns in your wet eyes.
I attempt to comfort you.
I can’t tell you this.
But I am on your side my child.
I have reported this.
They say nothing can be proven.
I am watching over you.
I have no answers.
Don’t know why this is your world.
You keep me grounded my friend.
I know that all is not well.
But you are safe with me now.
