A Final Goodbye

A Final goodbye
I bid farewell
To this living hell
Noone cares
I'm alone can't you see
I'm nothing but a forgotten soul
I sit here locked away
I await the punishment for the day
Screaming fills the silent house
The door creaks open
A name is screamed
Dreaded I hide from his terrifying words
I run to my bed
Slip under
Trying to avoid
A key is placed
And my door swings open
He curses as I weep
My arms bruised once again
Feel his fingers tightly wrapped
Jerked up from my bed
Slammed here and there
I stay strong until he is done
I shed no tears
While he enjoys his beers
I look out
Why have I been forgotten
I did no wrong
I only wish to be dead
Another car pulls in
Another pair of footsteps
They're back
Why do I endure this torture
I am but a child
Not even ten
Yet I only wish to be dead
With a final goodbye
Nails scraped across my raw face
I stand strong
No tears shed
Once they've had their fun
I'm locked up once again
I finally get to cry
A starry sky outside my window
Wish upon a falling star
I wish to be gone
I wish to live no more misery
Next night they come back for more
I sit and speak quietly
'Why mommy, why daddy?
Why do you do this?
I no longer wish to live
Kill me now with this final goodbye
I still have enough love to spare for you
Please kill me now
I love you but you no longer do me'
They listened and cared none
They made my wish come true
I was slammed head first into the concrete wall
Blood trickled down my cheak
I gave my last breathe
I layed sprawled dead
They walked out and locked the door
My soul unlocked from its cage
Bids a final goodbye
