Life is like a dream. Its perfect until you wake up into reality.


Red marks on my arm where your hands have gripped. Tightly, hands clenched. Thrown onto the floor. Back laying down. Voices, your voice yelling. Screaming. Growing louder each second. I try to get up pushing myself but arms are too weak. You bend down and shove me back. You grab a pillow and cover my face. Cover my mouth, cover my nose. My lungs tighten. Gasping for air. I try to push you away but arms are still sore. Stop this pain. Kill me already. I don’t want to suffer. My tears raining down my cheek. Please….

In fifth grade I didn't finish my chores so my mom yelled at me. I cried and cried and asked to stop but that only made it worse. She smothered me with a pillow and told me to shut up because the neighbors will wake up.

yeah, but you still have 3 more years with her. no one should have to live like that.

This was a very good article. I'm worried about you, maybe you should call social services or the police.
