Maybe Some Day  I screamed in pain as my cheeks throbbed. He pushed and pushed too hard. I feel my head crash to a wall. Again I hear the silence of that fall. |
 My body all tired to fight. My spirit broken and torn. I welcome the blank aftermath, My mind will box and shelf all these. |
 Someday ... maybe I will tell, The tale I have but kept, Hidden in this treasure chest. Of the times my soul has wept. And no one heeded my cry. |
 I smile, I laugh but I do not tell. Maybe someday... I will. | © 2002 by Zernalyn Palmares |
