Beat Me Dead

i ache all over i can hardly breathe do i dare take another step? my spine is crooked and my throat so dry that blood pours out of my mouth im covered in scars and broken bones create me bruises lace my skin and fear running through my veins this is too much pain. i scream out in the night begging for an escape the fists that have impact as strong as a hammer create within me, a phobia. the stairs are too close don't walk down without checking because the pain may come quick and the scars will last ages. maybe im clumsy or maybe he's mad either way im just hurt broken and scared. do i dare disobey? my heart is finally giving out and my lungs shriveling inside of me this is the part where i die. pushed down the stairs or beaten to the ground im no longer bruised by you.
