(im not abused)

Tears fall down my face,

He stands in the doorway,

Mother is crying by the fireplace,

Bruises, blood, the pain won't go away,

He walks to me, grips me by my throat,

Beating me helpless,

I feel like a bird, about to sing its last note,

They try to pretend, to clean up the mess,

I draw upon each soothing breath,

Preparing for the end,

God save me, I pray you bring me my death,

Send me an angel to whom I can befriend,

Gone forever in the dark abyss,

There's nobody upon the Earth that I shall miss.
