Broken Home
~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the darkness surrounds me
My heart starts to pound.
I back into a cornner
And cower down close to the ground.
As I sat there quietly
I heard footsteps coming down the hall.
I had to make a run for it
So I slowly moved away from the wall.
As I looked around the corner
I didn't see anyone.
So I crept a little down the hall
The began to run.
He came out from behind a door
And started to look around.
He knew that I was running
He heard the echoing sound.
I heard him chsing after me
He was catching up quick.
I suddenly found it hard to breath
The air was getting thick.
As I started down the stairs
I thought I'd lost my mind.
I needed to find somewhere to hide
A place he couldn't find.
I hid under a bed
I heard him come in the room
He was getting closer to me
I knew I was about to meet my doom.
He flipped over the mattress
He saw me hiding there
He slowly started reaching down
I knew my life he wouldn't spare.
I wanted to call 9-1-1
But I couldn't reach the phone.
As I took in my last breath
In this broken home.
My father had strong hands
That hit me all of the time.
Be he couldn't do it anymore
Because he took a precious life,
Mine!
