Wasted youth
Who? Who bares the fault of wasted youth?
Grown up way to fast
Mentally abused
Still young through physical abuse
Scars so deep it never heals with blood that constantly seeps. Whose fault?
The child, or adult who creeps in at night and says daddies little girl, while mommy says it's ok between us girls ssssh don't tell Daddy our secret games.
Child grows confused of sexuality still young physically but grown mentally
Sexual encounters between any who care. But confusion is still deep no feeling no sleep.
Wasted youth never had time to play with dolls as she was the doll. She was the toys as she steps around the corner and sees her brother only 2 years treated better than she as she takes a swig of cheap whiskey. Missing the chance to be the mother of her son/brother. Walking away ashamed at 17

Author's Note
It's saddens me how innocence is stolen by those that should protect it. Keep it safe and treasured. But the love and affection even protection for such sacred gifts in youth is instead abused... I hope and pray for all whose youth was stolen. As I pray for my own. 🙏🏾

That was a powerful write. It's a scary world for those whose innocence is stolen.
