Afraid

Afraid just to go home afraid that if anyone finds out she will be in trouble afraid of coming home to her mother already drunk an ready to lock her in the closet or beat her till she couldn't breath how did she live with her dad raping her when he got a chance afraid to go to school don't want any one to see the scares she sits in her room thin kin oh no my mothers home she hides under the bed while she is scared under the bed her mother calls he name I had a bad day at work where are you she hits her she falls while the blood falls from her face she cries she makes her stop crying an locks her in the room while she bleed crawling on the floor she hopes her dad doesn't come home tonight her dad comes in late she already feel asleep her dad wakes her with the feeling of he's hand going down her body how did she live like this why didn't any one know I ask myself how I survive in that live an why I didn't tell Afraid just to come home
