There are many forms of child abuse. This is only 1 of them. A child taken from her bed, raped
and buried alive by a sick depraved child molester, who just lived next door.
In the Darkness In Loving Memory of Jessica Marie Lundsford.It has been 5 years now but I know
the pain of the family continues to haunt them like it was yesterday.
Take a minute to light a candle and a moment of silence for all the abused children. Thanks
In the darkness of night
When little girls dream
of things that delight
A Monster waits
for the time to be right
In the darkness of night
A child sleeping
all snug in her bed
watching sugarplums
dance in her head
A Monster strikes
Another child disappears
In the darkness of night
Nine years old
happy and free
innocent and pure
vanished, gone, no one
can find her
The Nation watches
sends their prayers
Searches go on
Hope in a downward spiral
Click Clock, Click Clock
Time passing as we watch
the clock, Click Clock
It's over
The monster confesses
Jessica Lundsford
Age 9
Dreams no more
In the darkness of night
Sweet Jessica
My heart cries for you
For what your last hours on this earth
were like for you
At the hands of a sick Monster
During your parting from here
to your new home
I know the Angels came for you
to comfort you in wings of love
To take you to the place where
there are streets of gold
Lots of puppies for you to hold
smiles and kisses
lots of laughter
no fright or pain
Our hearts go with you
to help you along the way
Candy from the Milky Way
Pillows of clouds on which to lay
Angel wings always, always
Holding you close
So travel on sweet Child
As for you, we Pray
Rest In Peace Sweet Jessica
My sympathy to this family, for what they are going through.
Stay strong, you will meet again.
The fact that child abuse is against the law in every state is simply not enough to stop this
growing epidemic. Everyone must play a role if we are to change these tragic national
statistics:
•EACH DAY in the United States, five children die of abuse or neglect in the home.
•Approximately 3.3 million reports of abuse are made each year.
•The actual incidence of abuse and neglect is estimated to be three times greater than the
number reported to authorities.
