The child....

(I don't like this and I have no idea where it came from ) but it wanted to penned so I penned it !!

The noises that I hear
As I snuggle in my bed
Are insistent and I’m scared
It happens every night
My mother now is shouting
She slams the bedroom door
Uncle John is saying
He’s better rid of her

As the noises start to calm
Mother in her bed
I hear the creak upon the stairs
One breathe then two, then three
And now stood here beside me
He smiles his evil smile

Uncle John now whispers
What a good girl am i
To keep our little secret
And I softly start to cry
He wipes away my tear
As it trickles down my face
He tells me how I make him feel
So very good inside

And as he begins to stroke my hair
He slips inside my sheets
His hands now starts to trace again
The patterns as before
I close my eyes now oh so tight
To blot out all the pain
I wish my mum would wake up
I scream it in my head

I’m disappearing now
For this is how I hide
I hide away from him
Inside inside inside
And when I wake he’s gone away
My routine must be done
I have to wash away my sins
To scrub and wash me clean.
