It's Hurting Inside

It's late, we have taken pills to sleep but i can't. I'm scared. Scared we are not safe. I have checked on the children 3 times,and triple checked the doors are locked. I still don't feel safe or free. I'm waiting for'them' to come. I'm waiting for safety but it never comes. I don't want to die. I want to live but i don't know how. I'm scared they are going to come and get me. I can't sleep, i must stay awake. They are hurting inside, but it doesn't show. I can't sleep, it's not safe.

Freedom

Even now, all these years on, we are still told, 'don't tell all your story, it is too shocking, people won't believe it. ' Where do we go from here. It's too shocking for people to believe, once again the abusers have power. When will the truth be free.

One Thousand Years

One thousand years of pain in one life time, is to much to bare.
