nothing worse you can do to me

You dragged me from my bed this time, then tossed me down the stairs.
I cried out loud more to my pain, than to my own fears.

I am use to it daddy, I'm use to the traditional beating.
I actually think there's nothing worse you can possibly do to me.

Everytime it storms, everytime it rains.
You come after me daddy, and it's always the same.
The thunder, the lightening, then all the pain.

I would be so quiet daddy, as quiet as a mouse.
No laughing, running, playing in the house.

But still when it storms you come after me.
Yelling, screaming, pulling your belt free.
I'm use to it now, there's nothing worse you can do to me.

You hit me, I scream, no tears, there all gone.
But this time is different, you just stand there, something's wrong.

No one will want you after this, you say, you smiled then leave.
I sit on the floor, confused, wondering what do you mean.

The door suddenly opened. Half a dozen, I counted, men came in.
I guess this is what you mean, I thought, watching the men walk over grinning.

I was up in a second, oh yeah, now I was scared.
I ran, straight for the window, I had to get out, get away from my fears.

I didn't care how, I would swan dive if I had to.
You know there's nothing worse YOU can do to me don't you?

I actually smiled, I was almost there.
Then I felt it. Heavy, hard. No, they hit me with a chair.

It hit the back of my legs. I went down with wide eyes.
No, daddy. Why? why are you against my side?!

They rushed me in a dog pile, grabbing my legs and arms.
No! Please! Don't do this!, I cried out, struggling under a hold insanely strong.

Please! Please! Don't do this! I cried again, then felt my clothes being torn off.
There's nothing worse you can do to me, my mind actually thought.

Nothing worse you can do to me, feeling sets of rough hands grab at my body.
Nothing worse you can do to me, not even if you put a gun to my head and shot me.
Nothing worse you can do to me, feeling something being shoved down my throat.
Nothing worse you can do to me, I think as I began to choke.
Nothing worse you can do to me, screaming, feeling the first guy push inside.

Nothing worse you can do to me... except for this, I finally cried.

Omg thats a horrible story...I dont mean that in a bad way...I was in shock reading this. If this actually happened to you Im so sorry that it did. It is such a cruel thing to have to endure. This is a great poem and I really liked it. Good job.

Searing and desperate. Vividly expressed.

I am speechless, I almost cried just reading this. I can relate, but it angers me, disgusts me, depresses me, to hear about such horrid things happening to anyone. The poem was great, very well written, but very sad.

im not even gunna talk about how good this poem is, no one should feel like they have to write a poem about something like this, it shouldnt be happening to anyone and if it is happening to you, you should really tell someone that can help prevent it from happening again....thats just wrong, im in shock seriously ..i dont know what else to say

can you really say no to your daddy? even if he is wrong? I just want him to love me. For once.

Yes, you can say no. Even if it is the most painful thing in the world. Even if it kills you. Yes, you can, because sometimes you absolutely have to. My dad didn't do this to me, but similar things. I said no when i ran to the neighbor's and called the cops because he had grabbed a knife and my mom. Please, please, please, say no.

Amazing poem. The pain is raw and horrible, but written well. VERY good. Beyond good. This is so much talent you've written down.

Hey, stay strong.
