She was only four
Too young to even know
The difference between
Right and wrong
The difference between
Good and bad
Such and innocent little thing
What did she do to deserve this?
Barely knowing who she is,
She cries and screams
Wishing she was dead
Wishing she lead a different life
All because of you
You tore off her dress
Used and abused her
Raped her even though
She said you were hurting her
When satisfied,
You left her there
Alone and broken
Not knowing what happened
You see her the next day
And slap her across the face
Leaving a permanent hand print
Just because her wrists were bleeding
SHe turns away
And silently begins to cry
Under her breath
With a deep sigh
She makes a wish
"I wish my daddy was dead"
Author notes
Last night I had a dream. More of a nightmare. It left me a mess this morning. I don't know where it came from, but I had a nightmare that a dad raped his four year old daughter...This poem describes the nightmare almost beginning to end. I hope this dream didn't mean anything, cause it really has me scared. But I felt like I had to write about it. It felt like it would have been wrong of me to just ignore it. I've been in a mess since this dream, I can hear the little girl screaming and crying. I remember everything clearly. Her face, hair, dress, and name. Her name was Ashley Lynn. She had brown back length curly thick hair. She had on an orange lace dress. The cutest face. And threw the whole dream, she held a doll, it was a victorian style doll, but broken. The hair was torn out in some parts, and it was dirty, and the dress was dorn. Is it weird that I remember all of this in this much detail, considering I don't remember most of my dreams? Is it trying to tell me something?

this is a great poem full of troth and despair. don't change it! it's fantastic and the emotion just seeps through

this is a really good peice. me and my friend brooke are reading it and we both agree that its like a mixture aof er and me put together. i was raped when i was three or for and her dad hits her and she hates him. it definetly reminded us of some stuff but thats good i think. because if you open up old wounds you can deal with them better. i really like it and hope to read more of your work.

Goodness, you saw this? And in such details? I don't blame you for feeling a mess, it was horrible and I agree with Deathwolf over here about this could have been a vision. Scary and I loved the poem and truely felt a mess too when read it, you expressed very well. The last line was amazing, it made me feel such loss and pain for this little girl. I hope everything turns for the best for you, take care.

Very disturbing background to go with the poem. And yes a very strange quiry you remember this much information, though stranger a name. I believe you had a vision. If so, I would follow it, this is spirits work. In my religion, when one has such a strong encounter, it probing something of you to face. Something you are scared from thats happen to you, or struggled with emotionally with a friend. Dont let it slip search for its orgins, it might help save something.
Sincerely,
Deathwolf Tasagka

I'm just so confused to why I got this dream. I don't know anyone of the name Ashley Lynn...And I'm scared because my aunt is pregnant, and she's planning to name her baby Ashley if it's a girl. Could this mean something? Like...her dad could rape her? This scares me so much...I want to tell her but at the same time I don't...
