Being a Child Shouldn't Hurt

by ChallengexEverything   Nov 17, 2010


This place is supposed to be the safest
Yet it‘s the place I fear the most
I can’t fall asleep at night
Because I know daddy’s close
I run from his fiery fist
And hide from his cutting eyes
I can’t show him that he hurts me
Or let him hear my cries
If he catches me being weak
It will start a chase
He won’t stop until he finds me
Then takes his anger out on my face
Throwing my fragile body around
I can feel his hateful stare
How can he do this to me
Hurt me without a care
What did I do to deserve this
I have torn shoes, holes in my shirt
I don’t know what I did wrong
Being a child shouldn’t hurt
