A pounding heart
Beating in time
With the ticking of the silence
The wide green eyes
filled with fear
Glistening with tears
The tears fall down her face
And wash away the dirt
and uncovers the bruises
Trembling lips
Lush as a dripping red rose
A voice stuttering with terror
Shaking as a shadow looms over
The stutters blend with pleading
The shadow comes closer
She wants to move
and run away
but its to late
The silent night is broken
The ticking silence is lost
By the scream that no one heard
No one cared to listen
