Why does she cry on her pillow at night
Wondering if anyone loves her for her mind
Just covered in thoughts and fluffy pillow tassels
That’s just how they were designed
Ripped at the seams and knowing too much too early
Why is she only 14 and knows why it aches between her thighs
The washed out fluff from inside the pillow
Is the only one that hears her cries
Coming home black and blue to a house she once called home
Drugs. They caused it. No that’s her only resolution
To the thoughts that drown her deeper then her pillows wrapped up in her tears
So what’s her solution?
Where does she go from a house that wasn’t a home
When she’s sick of running from her mind
Is their anyone out there to help her she wonders
Is there anyone that kind?
A crippled pillow on its last legs
A love that was once seen as someone who will care
But what happens when that pillow falls apart
It leaves a love that is lost and will linger there
But what’s a girl that’s only loved by her a pillow
The one who controls her dreams
A young girls life lost
By no ones love and attention and sickening screams

More than sad it's bloody awful.
A well constructed piece it is, but what else? Imaginative statement? Something you've witnessed? experienced? Can't blame you if you don't wish to answer, particularly the last, but it gives me the horrors, to be quite honest - even if, as I am, aware that such situations do exist.
More context please.
But above all else, what am I supposed to do?

Hello Dave this poem is inspired by my friends experiences of what happened when she was a young girl it has all been sorted out the correct authorities got involved she said she would love if I wrote a short poem about it to raise awareness of what happened in her past thank you for your support
Thanks for clarifying this for me, Evangaline. I'm relieved at that.
Will she grow into a person behind a painted mask of attraction displaying 'I want your attention' to many a poor suitor? Or retain her dignity and place her personal integrity forefront to the world.
A choice overlooked by so many it appears from the state of western society.
Such interesting questions Dusk! I am very happy you enjoyed my poem based on my friends experiences when she was a young girl! This is exactly why I wrote this piece as it is very overlooked by society!.
A very sad emotive write Evangaline but one day that pillow will be renewed and real love will come to share that pillow with you.
Andy
