Silent Night

So much for that in my childhood. Irrational idioms slinging often. Loads and loads of arguing. Everyday from 6am to 6am. Not at home anymore in my own place, To get over him. No night I had peace had to go to bed angry at dad. I hated the awful experience of him opening Hell's Gates with his hurtful words of hate towards me, my mom, and others He did not love. He loved some but not all The awful turbulent troll rolls in guilt while I'm at my own home with silent nights.

I like this one. I wrote a poem 'A man of my renown' about more or less the same experience. Its interesting to see your excellent approach.

Glad you finally found peace. This reality is true for far to many. You paint a clear picture and used the challenging acrostic form well. Best wishes with your writing and with life in general. Happy New Year! Karen
