Poem: Streams of tears by Nelson

Happiness from sunrise to sunset and nothing lacked
The devil finally in the midst of the parents
Fighting and breakage of home stuff rampant
In no minute it was not home but a house
Streams of tears rolled down the girls’ innocent face
Sighting her mother taking fast paces out of the compound
With an unbearable sack on her head
No attention of her daughter and had her last sight
Slowly she disappeared in the bushes.

Cans of water on her head for a mile
Clothes eager to be washed and no school today
Waiting bushes of tall and healthy grass to be dug
Gradual tears rolled down her eyes
A 12 year under suffers of a step
A load of responsibility of mother at home.

Not to one night when it struck her head
Escape perhaps to a better life
Body tired of step’s torture
Brain tired of father’s awkward ideas and orders
Hands tired of the heavy mother work
No option she too disappeared to the bushes.

Pace to pace through a tiny single path
Numerous miles end fortunately to town
A smile on her face though desert stomach
Neck muscles tired due to look at tall buildings
At the end where to sleep?

And idea. The head on solid cold rock
Blanketed by the transnight storms
Whole body cold to the last body tissue of a small body
Almost to freezing ice in a fridge
The little girl suffered.

Then finally meets a handsome strange
He was a few meters infront of her
He discloses heaven and earth to the girl
She finally accepts due to the high need of basic needs
Not three months when she changes body
A big swelling infront of her body
It finally strikes her mind that she is bearing a child.

Oh no the man denies
The little girl confronts heavy beats and high momentum slaps
Pushing her out of the strangers’ house
Once again back to the streets with the swelling
Oh not until held by a new descent stranger
The little girl too puzzled.

The next step was taken. Oh to the authorities
Wow, it was successful to her side
On God thanks, she finally gets back home
Back to happiness in the family through still pregnant
Time passed and she gave birth to a boy
Now holding a pen and a book once again
Fight domestic violence, child abuse and child sexual violence.
