Thanks for the input Stan and Nigel.

Colin- These aren't lyrics. This isn't intended as a song. It is 'just' a creative writing. I know it is too harsh to be commercial and doesn't have a structure. I literally wrote it down as I 'heard' it in my head and didn't make changes to it. I realize it would need a lot of work in order to be accepted.

And your right...not many would want to hear a song about all the negativity in the world...that is partly why child abuse continues to be as rampant as it is...no one wants to talk about it and no one wants to believe it can happen in their own families.

One day I will try to re-write it to tell the story I want to tell but also be not too offensive and turn too many people away. It's a tough subject to write about in a 'nice' way. But, I've received some great advice here and plan on using it for the re-write.

Thanks all!


Thanks, vicki
