Don't Hurt Me Mommy

Child abuse is a crime, put a end to this

Don't hurt me mommy , for i cannot see.

My eyes you have blackened and i'm starting to bleed

Don't hurt me mommy, I did not mean to shout 

I know that i'm worthless, you'll never be proud

Don't hurt me mommy, i'm sorry i split milk on the floor 

Please don't grab me by the hair and shove me into the door.

Don't hurt me mommy, I did nothing this time

Yet you still continue to beat me as if iv'e committed a crime.

Don't hurt me mommy, I didn't mean to swear 

Here comes the whacks on my skin that is bare.

Don't hurt me mommy, I'm sorry I exist.

I'm sure if i died you'd be satisfied with it.

But then you'd just get another one. 

Adopt them and treat the with care.

After a month that will change though.

They will forever be scared.

That got me teary-eyed, I came from an abusive home and you hit that nail right on the head. couldn't have said it better myself.

[Sarah Lynn]

Aww :/ Im sorry about that .

[David Burke]

it's ok, it gave me the tools to save others from suffering the same way I did. It's the reason I'm more than happy to listen to and help anyone who should need or wants it

[Sarah Lynn]

Well thats always a good thing . I love helping others as well too .

[David Burke]

I'm not surprised lol just by reading your work I was able to see a lot of what makes you who you are and that's enough to make anyone open up to you

[Sarah Lynn]
