Years have passed, we may have moved away But the scars you left us are forever there to stay Years have passed, but I still remember it well My only safe place, called home Turned into a living hell Day after day I was scared to enter the home door Scared of the broken glass, yet to be found on the floor Will it be another night of pain and tears? Or will he be sober and spare us of our fears? This question over and over, day after day Hoping for the demon inside my father to go away But he kept drinking and screaming Giving alcohol another meaning My mom and sister started crying A huge fist slams on the table, silence came But on the inside we were terrified, slowly dying I did not have the strength to stand up against him Knowing how strong he is, my chance of succeeding would be very thin Once in our beds we hoped he fell asleep downstairs So we could sleep peacefully, without any violence and flying chairs We had our peacefull moments when he was asleep Those were the times we could safely weep That thought had to wait Since he was coming up, he's back to make us afraid I covered my ears, not wanting to hear Any horror that might happen, shivvering in fear The sun finaly arrived, giving me my first embrace Quickly I remove the tears on my face And prepare myself for another day at school Time to put on another fake smile and act all cool As if nothing had happened But it did. I don't wish to be everything to everyone, but I would like to be something to someone. |

Wow, that's great but so sad. I don't know how that feels personally, but it sounds terrible. You've expressed it really well though and the whole poem flows brilliantly. It really is an amazing poem  |
