My Fear

My fear
I fear the light
so im bedridden
into a room so dark.

I fear getting into my fathers path
He will not let me pass
He will beat me like a slave
But wont leave a mark
Just my tears astray.

I clean the house at night
So that during they day I can hide
My eyes now burn from that light
Because my tears messed up my sight.

I cry and look in the mirror
This is not me
I was smart and pretty
Now I have circles under my eyes
And my skin,so pale.

I sleep not
For nightmares haunt me
I know im dying
But believe me
Hell is better than this.

This was a true story
Of my life
And my fear
Of being here.
