Little Maria

Soft and sweet

Fell upon

The hard concrete

Of words her father spat at her

She closed her eyes, trembled  in fear

Walls arose within her heart

Sorrow  seemed to never depart

Bleeding tears of innocent blood

Meandering down into the mud

Which lay beneath her ashen face

While her parents screamed

Called her a disgrace

Little Maria

Soft and sweet

Felt her little being

Gently deplete...

~How I wish I was writing fiction. Yet some of us hold scars from mere words, spat at us from a tender age~
