Is this Abuse?

by [=*Lua*=]   Jun 19, 2006


Even though he promised never again
It happened last night
The monster came out of him
Inflicting pain with every strike
Each time his hand struck my head
You are worth nothing
Is what he said
Picking me up by the hair
And dragging me along the floor
I began to cry
As he hit me once more
Shaking in the corner of the room
Is where he left me
Not knowing what I had done wrong
I crawled to find my key
I had it in my hand
Sneaking to the door
I needed to get out of the house
I couldnt live with it anymore
Not knowing that he heard me leave
I began to run
Then I felt a hand grab my shoulder
And another blow to head was to come
I stumbled and hit the ground
He dragged me to hell
Threw me threw the door
Where again I fell and cut my foot
And it bled all over the floor
For that I received another hit
Because it was going to stain
I deserved another punch
I deserved more pain
Im going to stand up to you I said
Not just run away
I did that when I was younger
But im not going to today
I tried to stand up
He hit me again
My head was pounding
I couldnt take the pain
Dad how could you do that
When you said you wouldnt anymore
What did I do to deserve it
To be left beaten up on the floor?
Now im looking in the mirror
My eyes are red and swallen
my cheeks are all bruised black
you expect me to forgive you again!?
I can never do that
I thought this phase was over
But I was obviously wrong
Trying to cover up my bruises
With my makeup, trying to be strong
You say your sorry
But you said that last time
Is this abuse???
Is this a crime???
I dont know what to do
If only someone was there
To help me through
There to show they care
I feel so unhappy
All I ask is why?
Why is this the life I lead
And why is all I do cry?

I dont know what to do
