A Poignant Calamitous

No words can describe
What a defenseless person has experienced
When physically or sexually abused
Why are they targeted
Sexually molested
As an innocent child
Or why a happy woman
Is suddenly raped
And her self esteem stripped
No longer trusting those around
Or a quiet teenager
That finds themselves helpless
When everyday they're bullied
By someone in their school
Mostly unheard
But happens on a daily basis
Occurrences that make my heart weep
When I hear these unfortunate true stories
Of people once like me
Whom cherished their dignity
But now filled with horrible unforgettable memories
And their attackers
Mostly face little or no time in prison
Leaving victims with no self worth
No longer enjoying life
But staying locked up within themselves
Lost souls is what they become
Hidden away from societies eyes
