Favorite Quote:
worrying means you suffer twice <br /> -Newt Scamander (J.K. Rowling)


I always try to please you 

But you're never satisfied

You always judge

You never listen

You only hear what you want to hear 

You hurt us

And it's all because of that

That juice in your mug

You always have it

Even when you drive

Even when you sleep

We all have bruises 

Bruises from your words

Bruises from your ring

We were so scared 

We were scared of you Daddy

Mummy told us to stay away

To stay away from you Daddy

We never left our rooms

We never wanted to be around you

You had us scared to death

Scared to love 

Scared to live 


The author's comments:

I want to start off with that this poem was NOT based on true events this is just a very emotional piece that I wrote one day

 

this is from the perspective of a 4-year-old girl with an alcoholic father with two older (10 & 14) sisters and mother who are being abused in his drunken stupor and if you want to know more comment
