On one side was the monster
On the other side was its mate
She desperately wanted to run
away
Knowing soon would be her fate
The house was now so quiet all the guests had left
She wanted to scream out to them
For some reason her voice was not heard
She tried to gather up her strength as done
many times before
She knew what was happening next and imagined
herself hidden in the floor
This night would last much longer than the
previous nights before
Her cries and screams would go unheard no matter
how high they were
Now she was to told to recite the song, sing it
loud for them to hear
Terrified and full of fear she spoke those words
for them to hear
"Happy Happy Daddy"
"Birthday girl is here"
"Happy Happy Daddy"
"I'm your gift this year"
She shook and shuttered so terrified to move
The monster picked her up and threw her on the bed
Badly bruised and frightened, she actually hit her
head
Next thing that she remembers, not to scream or
shout
She closes her eyes, so the strong can come out
That night was full of pain, welts black and blue
Some of it so searing, that it caused unconsciousness
too
When it was over and the monster had its fill
It recited her the birthday song and said the
words "Thank you"
She lay there in the bed unable to move
Her body ached all over and she felt so torn apart
Her screams and cries were silent and at that
moment she wished she were dead
Every time she remembers that song, those nights,
the pain and agony she has an absolute rage within her. The agony and
horror of those nights is embedded so deep inside
her soul
In her mind, nothing can remove the pain she feels
except eternal sleep…
