I Am Lost

Where is hope?
If only there were a spark to lead me out of the dark.
To take away the fear.
A horrible monster holds me down
You’ll never be good enough to see the sun it hisses.
Love is a dream I reached for and it broke my hands.
Like a starving little girl trying to steal food.
Beaten and bruised.
No love for you.
No safety.
You are nothing
It says.
Ignored
Ignored.
And raped again.
I didn’t come back the same.
Where is hope?
No one cares about girls like me.
