Finding The Girl I Was Once Before

Published: August 2008

No one understands
but the girls who
have been abused
By the "man"
who has left you
so hurt and confused

Why me?
What did I do?
To not being
able to move on
from the things
that you do

I have changed
in my life
and not become
who I dreamt

All because you
took it all away
from me

I am 20 years old
and 13 years
hasn't over come
what you did

It haunts me
I hate you

I don't remember my
childhood like
others do

When I think of
my childhood
I think of you..

Its blocked out
the happy days
in my life

I wish you would
jus go away
or die

The hardest thing
is it was you so close
to me, and my daddy
never believed me
how could this be

I can not change what
I have become
You don't know what its
like to not be able
to overcome

I am writing this now
because its never talked
about no one knows
I walk through life
with this on my shoulders
everyday..

The truth is out
I hope you die
I was daddy's lil girl
until his nephew hurt me...

Wow. I cant tell you HOW much this relates to me and my life. I'm 13 now and my father's been hitting me since I was 4. It's 8 years and last year I finally had the guts to speak up and tell somebody. My father has caused me a lifetime of pain for no exact reason at all. Beating me until I'm black and blue and can't get up. My back is bruised for life and I am in great risk of osteoporosis. I hope karma comes back to him and hits him hard. my daddy did all of this to me. I will never forget the trauma and pain. I am scarred for life. thanks a lot daddy.

God I can relate to the feelings in this poem so much. I hate you for what you did to me. You allowed your daughter to grow up normally and sentenced me to a lifetime of pain. I HATE YOU!

I have been though so much this past year with my step dad hitting me. I feel so useless and nothing I do can please him. he beats me till I am black and blue or I can't even move. I keep the secrets from everybody. I usually say that I fell or I did it to myself to cover up for him. I'm scared everytime I walk into the house or when I even go to sleep. He only hits me and leaves my other sister alone and I don't know how much my body can take of the abuse. I have to go before he finds me on the website.
