Summer Uchacz Poet Free verse

Life Story

I was beaten
With a belt or a hand
Time after time
When I supposedly did wrong
They never warned
Just did
They don't care
So why should I
This is my life story
And I've chosen
Chosen the dark road
They always pushed me
Told me to do my best
But my best was never goo enough
They beat
They yelled
But not once did they ever think
That it would effect me
From 1-13 I have no recollection of happiness
There's a gap of where my memories should be
This is my life story
Cut short

The energy of positive people help, isolation does not help...Nice write from the heart. This is healthy for you to share, you deserve life, you deserve to be happy :-) Summer Uchacz October 22, 2011 at 7:33 PM I've always isolated myself, i feel i can never do anything right, i don't deserve life or to be happy

Anthony Nutter October 22, 2011 at 6:06 AM Sad, the hand of child abuse weighs heavy through out the years. Leaving scars that never seem to heal. Excellent write.
