Help

In my room, nice and quiet.
Until footsteps from out the door.
Dad comes in all liquored up,
NOt like usual a little more.
The yelling starts,
the violence begins,
He tells me to get ready to pay for my sins.
Jolts me from the bed,
A stinging sensation across my face.
IN my mouth the blood i taste.
I fall the the floor with intense pain.
My dad screaming my name.
Pulls me by the hair,
I get out a scream as my shirt tears.
He slaps me again and tells me to shut up.
He leaves the room as I lay lifeless.
Then a thought crossed my mind
To get to the phone.
I crawled over
picked it up
And to my relief there was a tone.
He picks me up and throws me across the room
HItting the wall
The last thing i saw before i blacked out was my dad standing tall.
I awoke with doctors around me
saying i was badly injured
They told me my dad said i fell down the stairs, but i beg to reconcurre
I couldn't move that well
i hurt to badly
Couldnt talk
could barely walk
Dad comes in 
A different side of him from last night
Said lets go
but i didn't want to
Tried to talk
Useless
No doctors in sight
Walking out
couldn't stay
here it starts
here we go...

Life

Life has its highs
Life has its lows
But what happens when the life in you dies?
The pain starts to show

I hate it strongly
Words cannot explain
Can it be put wrongly?
How the hell do i stay sain?

Not sure how to deal
Not sure how to act
Not sure how to feel
Happiness is what I truly lack

In the dark I wait
With pain engulfing my heart
Is this truly my fate?
Or just a part?

Is it being alone really that bad?
Or is it that I have grown accustom to it?
Pain is all I really ever had
I'd give anything just to be happy just a little bit...

Lost Love

Can love be lost?
Can it just dissapear?
My heart was tossed 
Losing you is what i fear

The thoughts in my mind
There was one technicality
These tears, this pain , I can no longer hide
Lost love is becoming a reality

When you started the lies
When you started the cheating
The trust slowly dies
My heart took the beating

It was you I once used to believe
It was you I used to wait for
It was me you started to deceive
This pain is hidden behind closed doors

Why did you do this?
Why cant you see?
Why did you give me that kiss?
Out of all people to hurt, why me?

I loved you with all my heart
It was my heart you shattered
You put me back in the dark
You make me feel so alone when I used to feel so flattered.
