Child of the Moon

The swing set timidly swayed back and forth,back and forth

My forehead burned, reminding me of past occurrences

The mark forever stained blood red, the mark of love

A teddy bear clutched in hand, my only friend.

Sorrowful eyes, reflecting sadness and anger in my sea foam orbs

I sat swinging to and fro, all day, and all night

Unable to sleep, and unable to dream

To dream of being loved, and loving in return

It was a fools dream

And alone in the moonlight, I cried

I am Tainted ,torn, and tattered

Beaten,broken, and battered

Love me...

Hate me...

Fear me...

But please...

Just look at me...
