Domestic Violence Against Women

My husband beats me every day! I cry in pain, but no one cares, no one even comes and says don't cry. Everyone criticises me non stop, I only hear how bad I am. It hurts, I feel I don't deserve to live! I have to obey everyone's orders, right or wrong, I have to behave nicely with all however bad they are, If by mistake I open my mouth, all pounce on me together. Just few hours of sleep at night, bruises and pains in body, burning eyes, A life without love and care. I would like to run away but where will I go? I don't have a house of my own! Alone on road's I can't imagine myself , hungry wolves would pounce on me at night. If only my parents had informed me about this before, I would have worked hard, educated myself well, earned and purchased an house, I would have learnt self protection skills like judo and karate. Maybe they didn't want to scare me, Maybe they thought I would be happy after marriage, Maybe they wanted me to enjoy my childhood. I hide all this from my parents, I don't want to make them sad, I don't want to be a burden on them. Sometimes I feel like dying, but I know all about it's consequences, Now I have killed my emotions, desires, expectations, I live a life of living dead If you have a daughter please see to it that she doesn't suffer, make her bold and independent! educate her! she should have a house of her own where she can run away and live happy.
