The child without affection

he's coming for me
I run and hid

I hear him scream
"Your about to die!"

I scream and shout
all in vain.

the hits and kicks
maybe he's insane

I stare at my mother
my eyes begging for care

she stares back at me
her eyes plea
please don't look at me.

the attacks end
my father leaves
slurring his words
of hate at me.

Its all over
I lay on the floor
not moving a inch

because I'm no longer there
But in the heavens above.

where tender love& care
is everywhere.
