I WAS JUST A CHILD

A happy child I was, full of life
Glamoring in the care of mama's guide,
I would Jump and run only to hide,
To hide from peers in the game of hide.  How I wish I know the future,
How I wish I can tell the picture,
What is within me is as dark as gloom,
Seeking for warmth and light in my room.

I remember forever red so bright,
The colors that agonize my dreams at night,
Uncle said it was just tomatoes,
But mama said red of tomatoes comes from no holes.

Uncle would play around my hole,

He said "tell no one less u die"
Little me was scared and mama must not know,
Friend said it is just red of dyes.

What have I done to the wretched world?
I was alone and my pride was my virginity, "This is your dignity" was mama's word,
But uncle took it away in a dark vicinity.

The beautiful dreams of childhood became terror!
Pains and screams, boogy uncle and blood from hole,
I was only a child what do I know.  Now life is meant to be lived in fears,
Fears of big uncle and those with rods,
Thoughts becomes pictures of red and tears...
What was my crime for I was only a child.
