Exceptional A Looping Acrostic As daybreak comes by kahpot Poem of the Month contest entry Artwork by Renate-Bertodi at FanArtReview.com

As daybreak comes she wears fresh scars Scars that cover her childhood dreams   Dreams of love little girls adorn Adorn with pride for coming years Years that beckoned bright stars beyond Beyond a time where love's restrained Restrained by walls bouncing echoes Echoes of hope praying for aid Aid unseen, for darkness she's kept Kept on tether till mind was caged   Caged in dreams she cannot open Open and free past memories Memories now of pain are etched Etched in blood so cold and silent Silent and still as daybreak comes     Recognized Author Notes National Domestic Violence Hotline Hours: 24/7 Call 800-799-7233 Or 988 lifeline.org Thank you Renate-Bertodi for the artwork A form I like to practice every now and then. An acrostic and loop poem combined-no rhyme scheme There is far too much of this sort of abuse going on
