Lets Never Forget Their Names...

"MY NAME IS SARAH"
My name is Sarah
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen
I cannot see,

I must be stupid
I must be bad,
What else could have made
My daddy so mad?

I wish I were better
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy
Would still want to hug me.

I can't speak at all
I can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long.

When I awake
I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home

When my mommy does come
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight.

Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car
My daddy is back
From Charlie's Bar.

I hear him curse
My name he calls
I press myself
Against the wall

I try and hide
From his evil eyes
I'm so afraid now
I'm starting to cry

He finds me weeping
He shouts ugly words,
He says its my fault
That he suffers at work.

He slaps me and hits me
And yells at me more,
I finally get free
And I run for the door.

He's already locked it
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me
Against the hard wall.

I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues
With more bad words spoken.

"I'm sorry!", I scream
But its now much too late
His face has been twisted
Into unimaginable hate

The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!

And he finally stops
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless
Sprawled on the floor

My name is Sarah
And I am but three,
Tonight my daddy
Murdered me.

Teardrop
                                    Project Banner

Today there will be silence

Today there will be silence mom,
no crying will you hear.
I didn't mean to anger you,
I just wanted you near.

Today there will be sleep again,
I won't cry out in vain.
The nights I needed comforting,
were filled with hurt and pain.

How could someone so big and strong,
strike out at little me?
I was a gift, your little girl,
unwanted now, I see.

Today there will be love at last,
l on angels wings I'll soar.
Way up high, above the clouds,
through heavens golden doors.

So momma, say a prayer for me,
for the life I'll never know.
I just wish you could have cared for me,
for I would have loved you so..

Baby Mine

Baby mine, don't you cry
Baby mine, dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine

Little one, when you play
Pay no mind to what they say
Let your eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear, baby of mine

If they knew all about you
They'd end up loving you too
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give for just the right to
hold you

And if they knew all about you
They'd end up loving you too
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give for just the right to
hold you

From your head to your toes
You're not much, heaven knows
But you're so precious to me
Sweet as an be, baby of mine
You're so precious to me, baby of mine
Baby of mine
You're so precious to me, baby of mine

LOVE SHOULDN'T HURT
Words & Music by JACK KUGELL, STEVE KIPNER and EVA KING

BORN IN PURE INNOCENCE
BORN WITHOUT THE FEAR
SHE SAYS "MOMMY WHAT DID I DO WRONG,
TO MAKE YOU CRY YOUR ANGRY TEARS?"
FEELING DIRTY AND ASHAMED
KEEPS MAKING UP EXCUSES
SHE'S LEARNED HOW TO HIDE THE PAIN
BUT SHE CAN'T HIDE THE BRUISES ANYMORE

THERE'S NO LIGHT BEHIND HER EYES
SHE'S TRYIN TO FIND LOVE IN A STRANGERS TOUCH
14 YEARS OLD AND SO ALONE
DESPERATE FOR WHAT SHE NEEDS SO MUCH
SHE CRIES HERSELF TO SLEEP AT NIGHT
AND PRAYS SHE WON'T WAKE UP...

LOVE SHOULDN'T HURT
LOVE SHOULDN'T SCAR
BUT SOMETIMES WE CAN BE SO BLIND
TO THE WAY THINGS REALLY ARE
LOVE CAN BE SO UNKIND

TRUTH IS THAT HEARTS GET BROKEN EVERYDAY
BUT LOVE SHOULD NEVER EVER HURT THIS WAY....


CHILDREN HAVING CHILDREN
& AND GROWING UP TOO FAST
IF YOU'VE NEVER BEEN SHOWN LOVE
HOW CAN YOU GIVE LOVE BACK?
HER NEWBORN BABY'S CRYIN'
IT'S MORE THAN SHE CAN STAND

SHE DOESN'T SEE THE TRAGEDY
WHEN SHE RAISES HER OWN HAND
THERE'S NO LIGHT BEHIND HER EYES
SHE DOESN'T REALIZE WHAT SHE HAS DONE
DIDN'T THINK SHE WAS BEING SO ROUGH
LITTLE ONE WON'T YOU PLEASE WAKE UP?.....

(CHORUS x2)

.... BUT LOVE SHOULD NEVER EVER HURT THIS

WAY....

This poem was written by the mother of one of the children on this site, Teasia Haggerty, who died from abuse at the hands of her babysitter.
 
This is dedicated to my daughter TEASIA HAGGERTY
"My Child"
 My child Though you are not here
I think of you Each day, week, month, and year.
There is not a day That goes by
That I am not forced To wipe the tears from my eyes.
You lefted me so suddenly I didn't know what to do
But please always remeber I will never stop loving you.
I will be fine As long as you are
You may be gone away But you are still in my heart.
We will meet again Oh, how joyous that day will be
And you will remember you are my child And will always be apart of me.
YOU ARE STILL MY CHILD!!
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART!!!!!!

Summer Phelps, age 4




The song you are listening to is called "Concrete Angel" and it's sung by Martina McBride. I first heard it while volunteering at Camp To Belong, a summer camp that reunites siblings who are in foster care and are unable to live in the same place. Two teenaged sisters sang it together. By the end, they were both crying as they sang it, and there were a lot of campers and staff crying too! I searched the web  long and hard to find a mp3 of this song for this website, because I think it belongs here.
