i try to forget the pain he's caused sheltering my babies from the truth i begin to cry,they ask me why whiping away my tears,i stop in fear placing my fingures beneath my noise i smell the sent that gives me fear: the smoke laced upon my fingures reminds me of his face,his voice i could smell it when he came home 'till i went downstairs to rest racing to the sink,i scrub my fingures raw,they bleed and ache i fall to the ground in tears trying to erase,the fear and pain he has embeded in my head
Reason for writing:
i wrote this when i smelt my hands after having a smoke an all that i could see was my step father's face and i was scared and fearing that i was becoming part of him....that through all these years i had become him careless....hatefulBirth sign: Not entered
