Child Abuse AwarenessLost in thought I drift away To a relm of peace Atleast for todayChild Abuse Awareness
No screaming No more fear No more blood No more tears
They say im a free one A dreamer of sorts If only they knew why i never wear shorts The cuts The bruses So easy to see So i close my eyes and pretend Pretend im not me

Help Me...-Child Abuse-Help me please I didn't meant to For whatever I didHelp Me...-Child Abuse-
My mommy came home one night And called my name She smelled like cigars and smoke Her hair smelled like alcohal
And she couldn't stand straight
When I came down
She had a bottle that said B.E.E.R I asked "etal emoh emac uoy d'yhw" But she just threw the bottle at me It shaddered into pieces Sticking to me One by One
It was so slow I wished it could go faster The pain didn't hurt But the words that she spoke
She dragged me to a hidden closet It

AbuseI'm looking for someone to tell me why, Why you've left me here alone to die Why can't you just let me run away? Why must I suffer through another day?Abuse
I've never done a single thing wrong My heart is good and my will is strong But still you're out to beat me down My life shatters as I'm thrown around
All I want to do is get out of this place What's left of this life? I won't leave a trace... Can't I escape? Why won't you let me? Broken, forsaken, not all that I can be
Your abuse is too much, I'm failing inside You're in control, I'm just along

AbuseAccording to you I don't even exist Unless your assisted by your fist Another blow I'm down for a while But you just stand there and manage a smile Frozen in fear, I can't help but stay But because of this fear I have to pay Your foot to my side again and again Now I just pray that this time it's the end You pick up a bat that was set by the door Pound it in my back which feels far more Worse than your fists going into my wounds I just stay real tight, it'll be over soon In a drunken rage you finally say "That's what happens when you get in my way"Abuse

MummyHe hit me mummy, He hit me hard. All because of that heart filled card.Mummy
It had a picture mummy, Of me and him in the sand. I thought he'd understand mummy, I thought he really cared.
I guess I was wrong mummy, Daddy doesn’t really care. Why bother keep me alive mummy? It’s like I’m not really there.
I should have seen it coming mummy, Seen the anger in his eyes. He won’t really care mummy, Care if I die.
I think he likes to hit me mummy, He thinks its all a game. What’s wrong with him mummy

The Monster and the ManMan misunderstood by fellow people Turns and twists inside Monster created to destroy men Is driven farther by men’s hateThe Monster and the Man
One chance day they meet And the monster and the man become one
They tear up the tiny village And leave nothing unbroken Then they smile and look at their work And decide to destroy every person
But the people end their plots And kill the two cursed beasts
They call themselves heroes And ask why the man was so demented They boast about destroying the monster And ignore the true monster in every man &nb

AbuseYou think I like it when you hit me? -Bring me to my knees? Like it when I'm on the floor, Begging you please?Abuse
You think I like it when I bruise? Get all sad and sore? I'm to afraid to leave.. So, I just come back for more
You think I like feeling alone? Even with you right there. I'm afraid for my life, But you don't even care.

Dear DadWhy aren’t I good enough for you anymore?Dear Dad
All I’m doing is lying on the couch
Resting because I have a splitting headache
And I feel like I have a fever or cold
And I open my eyes
Suddenly you’re there
Gaping at me like I’ve grown an extra head
And the first words that come out of your mouth
Are not asking if I’m alright
Or how my day went
Or just a plain hello
The first words you said to me today were
“Is your homework done?”
You haven’

if u regard the good person u own him and if u regard the bad person he will rebelled
Firstly I can remember at a very young age I knew a saw something I shouldn't have seen, an Old man physically playing with himself in front of me. I was so afraid that he would touch me and play with me.
Secondly and ever since then I have sort of been afraid of men, including ALL of my mothers boyfriends that had always ended up being domestic violence, and I witnessed EVERYTHING, it was very traumatic but the most recent thing that was the worst for being traumatic was her last boyfriend/fiance that lasted for 5 years, he was an alcoholic and was very dependent on the substance.. For many times mum tried to get out of the relationship with no real luck. Mum went to the resident policeman (who I know was best mates with the guy)to file the report of being in domestic violence, but no justice happened what so ever. In fact my mother and I were literally disowned and thrown out of our state, we weren't able to ever stay in one place for a long period of time, woman's shelters didn't want us, no employer wanted us,and not one would take the time to believe our story, probably not even her own sisters and brothers.. for many months we had lived in our car. full of clothes, boxes and necessary essentials to keep surviving, we even at times had to steal to survive. Luckily though after her psychiatrist had read all her files about everything we had been through he finally was the one that believed us and it was then that things finally settled down.. probably a year had passed and then she had committed suicide from being bipolar and deeply depressed.
I don't know.. but I guess I am a survivor now.. but.. I don't live for anything of purpose.. I'm still trying to find it.
Well back to this club, it is an awesome thing I must say.. I suppose it would help the survivors to talk to each other and help each other through situations.. Well done.. But is this club now closing down?

Oh How I wish, For soothing rain
All I wish is to dream again, My Loving heart
Lost in the dark, For hope I’d give my everything
