Baby Doll

Baby doll I watched as Tyke and Tot hit you and called you names,

As they talked to you in unknown voices.

 I watched as Tyke played with you and poured out his heart of pain.

 I watched and listened as he talked to you about himself, and Tot, and yes, even Baby being hurt by those who were supposed to protect him.

 Baby doll I am glad you can't hear him.  I am glad you can't remember the words that are seared forever in my brain.

I am glad that he remembers Baby Doll.  Even if that means he abuses you.  He needs to remember for just a little longer.  He needs to tell people who have the power to protect him.

I am praying baby doll.  I am asking God to keep Tyke from ever having to see those people again.
