7. ABUSE

No one cares about the bruises on my arm... Or where they came from

Because noone knows

Because I can't say...

But I can say I didn't fall down the stairs, an excuse i've used for so long--

Someone pushed me

And these scars didn't come from football practice, or some foolish game..

They came from the forceful, abusive hand of someone with my name

They're deemed totally sane

But they aren't... No but no one ever believed me

No no one would ever know

Because when I would say he abuses me

I don't let the fear in my eyes show

I don't let the tears flow

I don't let my scared eyes show how terrified I am

Only imagining what he's going to do to me when I get home

If he was to know

That I tried to tell someone

Who knows!

I might fall into a hole

Or hit myself with a baseball bat

Or maybe even throw myself down a full flight if stairs

Maybe I'll put me into a coma

But who knows?

Who knows what could happen, who knows what he's gonna do to me when I get home
