I can really relate to this poem.

About Abuse in the family.....


Broken family lives

Lost by my whole family
Trusted none
Respected one
Guilt for all

One hit, yelled and screamed
One cried
One bit, hit and hurt
One cared

A family of lost cause
Abused by all but one
Unheard by all
Left to die or survive

Two threw angry words
One comforted
One apologized continually
And I died daily

No prefect family
Others claimed
Lost in confusion
But all turned their heads

One disrespected me
Two watched
On threw emotion rips
I felt my demise

I lost, they lost
I survived but not the child
Within me, still dies
Daily with haunting emotions
So take caution.

(by Amanda Dawn)

I can relate to that one too.

"I survived but not the child
Within me, still dies
Daily with haunting emotions
So take caution."

That is exactly ture for me...
