An Orphan's Tale

in poetry •  7 years ago 

How much can you forgive?” 

Dear Adult, 

I had the memory beaten out of me but now I see

 I had a voice but it was taken from me, no not by choice, but by greed 

The bruises were there but you didn’t care, 

 You saw the pain as I watched you walk away 

But I do not care about that, not now, no way 

So could you please find mercy and love me, even for a day?  

 Signed The Orphan
