Fear Of Home

Published by Family Friend Poems December 2013 with permission of the Author.

you run in fear
you walk in fear
you hide in fear
you show in fear

life's a nightmare
one that never ends
one you can't escape
one where your worst fears are your reality

with the scars you try to hide
the bruises you lie for

your tear scarred face

that all disappears
when you walk in those doors
and nothing you do is right
and he reminds you

your pillow soaked
your cheeks scarred
and you're drowning
with the tears you always cry
