Unseen Scars: A Boy's Triumph over Abuse

Scars unseen, a silent cry,

A boy's innocence, shattered awry,

Abuse inflicted, again and again,

A victim of others' vile sin.

With each betrayal, a piece chipped away,

The boy's world turned to shades of gray,

Emotions locked, a heavy weight,

His heart wounded, his spirit's state.

In shadows he hid, alone and scared,

His dreams crushed, his soul bared,

A darkness clouded his tender heart,

The boy's existence, torn apart.

But deep within, a spark remained,

A flicker of hope, though dimly strained,

A fire that refused to be snuffed out,

A spirit that refused to succumb to doubt.

One day, a glimmer of light appeared,

A helping hand, a stranger who cared,

With a kind word and a listening ear,

The boy found solace, a heartwarming cheer.

He was encouraged to share his pain,

To speak his truth, to break the chain,

He found his voice, he found his might,

To stand up and fight for his right.

Through writing, he found a release,

A way to heal, a sense of peace,

He poured his heart onto the page,

His story, a powerful rage.

His words became his armor, his sword,

A shield against the world's discord,

He raised his voice, he took a stand,

A beacon of courage in a broken land.

His story echoed far and wide,

A tale of resilience, a boy's pride,

He inspired others to break their silence,

To seek help, to find their own resilience.

Though scars remained, both seen and unseen,

The boy's spirit shone, strong and keen,

He learned that he was not to blame,

That healing was possible, despite the shame.

With time, he grew, he flourished bright,

His inner light, a guiding light,

No longer a victim, but a survivor,

His spirit renewed, his soul revived.

The boy's journey, a testament to grace,

A story of triumph, in a dark place,

His scars may be hidden, but his strength is real,

A beacon of hope, a powerful appeal.

So, let us learn from the boy's tale,

To listen, to support, to never fail,

To break the silence, to lend a hand,

To help those in need, to truly understand.

For every boy, innocent and pure,

Deserves a childhood that is secure,

Let's create a world, safe and kind,

Where scars are healed, and hope can find.
