Teddy bear



Another smack

I start to bleed

As a child of six

Is this what I need



I can’t wait

For the time to sleep

I know then

That it’s safe to weep



Teddy bear

Can’t feel my pain

And for me, the hurt

I feel

Is hard to explain



I thought mommies

Were supposed to love

And not be vultures

That strike from above



Can’t she see

I’ve done nothing wrong

Or is this the meaning

Of tough love
