My Life

When I was a little I wanted to run away Felt scared and all alone Bruises all over Scared little girl inside Afraid to look at her face Didn't know what to expect Would she hit me again? Would I have to hide or protect my brother and sister? I heard them screaming and crying I can't protect them I'm so young. Just didn't know what to do I hid in the corner Wishing she didn't come find me to But it was to late She came and found me Screamed at me and yelled You're a bad little girl she said I cried and hid under my bed After all the beating I laid in bed Hoping tomorrow would be a better day It never way
