Give Me Back

Give me back my beautiful daughter.

Give me back my wonderful child.

Give me back days full of laughter.

Give me back secrets

shared between us.

 

But a secret undid my bright little girl.

Afraid to reveal what had happened,

she carried the secret for six long years,

till it wore her mind and body near death.

 

Damn the torturer!

Burn him in hell!

I will never know who you are;

but if we should accidentally meet,

God spare you from recognition.
