Ribbons and Pearls is the age All dressed up with no where to go. I know your secrets to your hate and rage A little girl--- one too many has tried to know. Deep behind the garden and around the bend “Daddy’s hands” always seem to find you there The tears of shame escapes you when You comb your long, blonde hair. And the demons only come under the moon Lock the door and close the blinds. The virtues of shame have bloomed much too soon And the innocence is left behind. For loving eyes have wept From many eyes have been kept And tomorrow is a new day. Father’s arms are always open and firm Mother’s eyes are always closed or turned And the powers that be have fell this way. So the silence is never broken And the words are never spoken But I see your pain. Trust is someone you’ll never know Happiness is something you will never show And your past, --- you will never regain. So look beyond those deadened eyes Far from those painful cries To a place where no one will hurt you anymore. Hold up that pretty chin And fight to the bitter end Because there are things worth fighting for. Poetry by: Timothy Cole
