Abused Children

Kids are abused everyday for no reason. We must try to stop this madness and make every child in this world as happy as they can be.

My drunk father on the couch.

I slouch against the wall.

Afraid of what might come

Or what there is to be done.

My mother working day and night,

So I will be alright.

A bright blue bruise upon

her cheek with so much to lose.

As he starts to wake

my small body begins to  shake.

I here him groan and curse

thinking this must be the worst.

What did I do

To you?

To put you in this state

And feel all of this hate.

Nothing is what I did

So good rid of you.

I have been abused

And completely confused.

I have felt most pain

And have been blamed for everything.

I am not afraid of you anymore.

I will boar this shame no longer.

Court is taking me

So I can be free

Of the terrible man

Who will be banned from me forever.

I will be safe.

From the rafe who imprisoned me.

I have never felt that feeling

That will be healing me soon.

Awe... this is really sad! This poem gave me shudders, meaning that you wrote it really well to make the audience feel for the kid and mother who are being abused by the father and are super scared to be near him. You took a real topic and made it not exactly fun to read, as it is a stressful topic, but made it very clear, so the readers can read this amazing poem!
"Court is taking me
So I can be free
Of the terrible man
Who will be banned from me forever."
This line made me smile, I was like, "finally, justice!!!"
Great poem! Keep it up!

Thank you so much! I was just bored and wanted to grasp something that needs to be announced to the world.

Wow...Just wow it's a great but rather sad piece of poetic essence that drives you in and makes you move and makes you want to be kinder and help someone out. Good job.
