ABUSED SURVIVER
Balling your fist
Just hoping you missed
Every single throw.
But then agian
Oh, there you go
With every blow.
Just knocking me down
Smacking me around
A fatherless showdown.
He is around but he’s not.
His ghost still creeps in his body,
I want to be a social worker
Helping kids who remind me of myself when I was young
Kids who are broken and battered and want to be free
Kids who are beaten by their dad
Who is supposed to love and protect them
