I'm sorry~

Scorned and outcast
Disdained and rejected
Seen as a scum,
a disgrace to your loved ones


With your head down
you bore the beatings
you bore the poundings
you bore the furious profanity


A failure, a shame to the family
Spat at to leave and never return
Scrutinised by the eyes now turned to ice
As you walked past,
a slap to the head, a kick to the leg
Forced to go down on both knees.


But hush little one, you've cried long enough
No one else to blame but you.
Remember to cover up all
With a smile tomorrow at dawn


As the terror in your eyes fade for a minute
Remember his promise of Forever and Always
Remember his promise of 'I'll wait for you'


Just close your eyes this second this minute
Hold onto the teddy
Dwell in your slumber


and Rejuvenate for a long long battle at first light.
