"Life As A Nightmare" I'm just a child It couldn't happen to me It's too wrong Yet I have proof The cuts and bruises speak for themselves This has gone on too long Maybe I should run away Or maybe, just maybe Kill him He's knocked me down This keeps happening over and over I keep still out of fear I try to scream but I can't breathe He's kicked the air out of me I close my eyes and keep my cries to myself Another day It's just another day of this nightmare Will it ever end? I'm just so helpless So defenseless I'm just a child My mother looks at me She smiles cluelessly I can't tell her, too much fear One night out of the blue I've done something wrong again Here it comes, another slap to the head I run to my place I can feel the blood rushing down my face It's cold outside, but I have no choice I try to dream Yet I can't sleep This pain is killing me I finally hear the sirens Is this the day that it all ends? No, they're after me He's lied Made it look like I'm all to blame ... Maybe this is my fault A question I have to ask myself If I had to do it all over again Would I have killed myself long ago? It's time to change I stand up to him I yell out my heart Why have I allowed you to beat me?! Why have I allowed you to try and kill me?! Why have I let this all happen over and over again?! You're my own father I'm your child This wasn't supposed to happen If life was a game Would I win in the end? Or would I only make it to 'game over'? And if I wasn't such a shame Would I [edited by moderator] all over again? Would I survive this pain? I can tell you right now This pain I feel just isn't inside my mind It's physically killing me I'm glad you're gone I'm glad you're out of my life I'm glad I'm free at last I hate myself for ever listening to you I hate myself for staying I hate myself for ever believing I hate you for what you've done to me I hate you for all that you've ever said I hate you, I hate you I'll have my revenge someday Just you wait You're gonna wish you'd never had a daughter You may be my flesh and blood But you're no family to me I hate you, I hate you father [This message has been edited by Sunshine (07-12-2003 09:17 PM).] |

No, tis not happening anymore. I wrote this poem when I was 11 years old. Which was a year after it all stopped. I'm 15 now, so twas a long time ago. I'm fine now, but I still have those bad memories. ~ Tenshi |

Wow, what a sad poem/story. I am glad that this is over for you. Keep writing, it helps to get through tough times. This is a very impressive write for an 11 yr old.  Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end... |

this is a very sad and emotional poem. I remember the abuse I suffered when I was 11 years old at the hands of my father, it's not something I would wish on anybody. Anyway keep up the good work. |
