She would lay in her bed to await to be gently tucked in with a kiss on the forhead.

And there he comes.

To turn her world grey and wipe away her innocence.

A dull aching and void was left where his careless hands had reached out to detroy.

A monster in disguise seeking to examine his pray.

To take her dignity

Her freedom

Her voice

She was silent because as he told her

"Daddy will go to a bad place if you tell mommy"

"You don't want that to happen, now do you?"

"No, Daddy." She would say

Her mornings consisted of the hope that bedtime would never come

Not knowing that the grey world she lived in would haunt her forever

In her dreams

Her thoughts

As time past she would get more stubborn

He would fight with her more and more often

"Please, Daddy."

She would plead

He would make threats as if in order to be accepted...

She had to sell herself

Her rights

So thats what she did at the age of six.

For months

This went on

Until the night, she watched as he was handcuffed and put into the back of a police car.
