As the cool morning warms
The sun up so high
I just lay upon the old oak soakin up the rays
I than catch this man out of the corner of my eye
So tall and dark
Low and be hold I begin to see
This silver chain tight in his hand
My heart stops
What should I do
Should I run
Should I scream
Just than it was to late
I feel the pain upon the back of my head
Just then I fell something warm runin down my spine
It has brought me to my knees
Unable to see
All is now a haze
Nothin now but darkness
As I wake
My head throbing
As if it were in a vice
My blurry vision slowly clears
For what I now see
Will shock you all
For I was
Bleeding from the head
The bright shiny chain
Now tight around my neck
The other end wraped aroud the old Oak
Like a dog chained and caged
I was trapped
Now unable to run
Unable to hide
Scared
hungry
Alone
Night is now near
Still not knowin what the hell
Now I see this man drawing near
Upon my side I now see
It was the man we all call dad
So scared now
Beeging now please let me go
All I see now
The smile upon his face
As he prosseds to hold the chain
Draging and pulling me
Across the gravel and dirt
Oh the pain
As the flesh begins to rip and tear
Not wanting to scream
Why give him the pleaser
To hear me as the pain sets in
I begin to fell the blows against my head
My bodie
Oh the pain
Will he stop
Will he kill me
Hours of abouse pass me by
The moon now high in the sky
He has left me for dead
Bloodie and battered
Now begining to storm
Covered now with
My blood,gravel,and rain
I begin to drag my battered bodie
Into the shade
Under that old oak
Were all this had started
Now wishing I was dead

Modified it farmboy only one word, but it speaks more truth, I think.


All the times you did what you done,
All those times, why didn't I run.

Could I outrun, the abuse known to come?
Why did I suffer - under your thumb?

I did what I did because I had to.
No choice, no option in dealing with you.

You were bigger, you were stronger,
The hold over me, you have no longer.

All the abuse and all of the pains.
Hear me, O'World, I now break those chains..........

It makes one think of all the abuse that some have taken the cries that went unheard the love that was not for them to have.
It is a sad world that these things can happen. My heart goes out for anyone that ever had to go through any time of abuse.

thank ou both.. that was beautiful. and so true.

That was beautifully written,and so sad.I pray the abuse in this world will stop,and no more suffering.

I have lived this life long ago,,, So sad yet so true,,, Incredible Work,,,,
