My Story

My Story

A Poem by Dalebear
"

This is my true story

"

All the abuse began when I was one

How my life was nearly gone

It started one day they sat me in my highchair

They boiled the kettle that made a loud blare

They got the tea spoons out the drawer

 Then they poured hot boiling water on which I saw

How they come over and pressed them on my hand

All this abuse which they had planned

The abuse got worse as the days and years went by

Which I wasn’t allowed to cry

Next thing they had done is  poison me

She put a quarter of tablet in my zippy cup that I couldn’t see

This made me sick as a dog

I was forever throwing up in the bog

A month on it started at bath time

She seemed ok and sang in rhyme

How then she called him in

He stunk of the horrible gin

Then she left me alone with him

He then told me to survive I had to breath under water for my life

Look at what he done and his wife

He drowned me and pushed me under

The next week he took me upstairs to hit me with his belt

That awful sharp pain which I felt

The next fortnight

He twisted and broke my arm with all his might

Then that day I knew I needed help

So I ran out the doors but no one heard me yelp

As he kicked me to the floor

I only knew here comes more

He kicked me and broke my ribs

He told me anyone ask to lie and fib

He carried on kicking me till my mind wasn’t there

He stopped and then watched to stare

Then  finally a passerby seen which  brought peace

Which they had phoned the police

your brilliance never ceases to astound
whether it's words or colours or clay
you know every painful sound
and you remember it to this day

those evil snakes who tortured you
will certainly fry in hell
they will be beaten black and blue
and no one will hear when they yell

god bless the ones who called the cops
and heard the pain of an innocent child
it's a relief when the torture stops
especially when it's so evil and wild

my story is very bad too
so bad that i cannot tell you now
it broke my courage into two
and i can't put it back together somehow

but i try and try and try
like each warrior must always do
and i cry and cry and cry
until i smile because of you

you are a gem and a sparkling star
you light up the entire universe
i can see you shining from afar
when you paint or write words in verse

your power and charisma are amazing
there cannot be anyone like you
your talent is just blazing
like a dream coming true

just a few more years
and you will see
there'll be lesser tears
and a smiling sea

but the pain won't go away
it was too bad what you had to go through
the memory will stay
but will make a stronger warrior out of you

people say it's all over now
but it never really ends
it stays there somehow
a painful message it sends

that's why warriors get it all
and it's very important that they do
that feeling of feeling small
and trying every day anew

bit by bit we'll feel better
bit by bit we'll make cleaner days
and you will be a trend-setter
and find newer artistic ways

you will shine and shine and shine
and the world will be yours
with all the words in each line
you will be opening many doors

new light will come in
and make the darkness brighter
you will always win
oh mighty warrior fighter

. you rock, my rockstar ... so thinks your long distance aunt serah ... :) ...

oh this is such a brutal story
sad and cruel and evil and gory
they hurt so badly a gem soul like yours
entry they will find only on hell's doors

and like a true warrior you fight
one step after the other with might
you're a real hero - all heart and guts
your magic it is that'll drive them to the ruts

in your words and in your art
shines the glory of your heart
and every precious tear you shed
will burn their evil souls to shreds

there is a light in your eyes that shines
in your brush strokes and in the rhymes
and when the years have gone by
fewer tears you will cry

the pain will forever be around
but peace and smiles will abound
there will be the dawn after the dark
and the edges won't be quite as sharp

new seas to sail, new skies to soar
new dreams, new smiles will roar
one step after the other's the key
a shining light you'll forever be

there's no stealing your magic now
oh you're sparkling and how!
you are a winner - you already are
the brightest - the most splendid star!

your story in heart breaking but will a good ending ..this is the worst thing a child could be subjected to especially at the hands of someone who you trust..and supposedly loves you..I live in a bubble because I find this hard to even comprehend..I have children and I just can't get my head around it..your a brave little trooper - thanks for sharing such a personal insight.
