Night and day
I creep around this house
A home, more like a prison to me
Each step so quiet not to wake this monster
Heart beats erratically in fear of him
Seconds tick like hours to me
Tears fall as I try not to wake the dead
But as always I end up doing
Door slams open
Hear comes the shouting
As I curl tight into a ball
The fear of knowing what comes next
Hands grab my neck to break my grip
I kick out and like in a rage the fists rain down on me
Cursing me, spitting in my face
Even saying wish you died at birth
That hurts more to me than the beatings
I have had all the bruises outside and in
Black eyes delivered from the fist of the devil
Broken ribs delivered from the elbow of death
Even faced a knife as he prepared to stab me
Bruised kidneys, and the odd choking
On visits to hospital
Oh my son fell down the stairs last night
You know the words
