Note from the Author:
This story was formerly part of the Beautiful Minds Domestic Abuse and Mental Health Anthology.
Please be aware that the story has content that could be a trigger.
It touches on the topics of physical, mental and sexual abuse and self harm.
This book contains situations and content that I experienced growing up.
I am a survivor of child abuse.
"No daddy, please stop." I'd beg him.
He never stopped hurting me.
I upset mummy. Bad girls must be punished.
I tried so hard, but I was never good enough.
Eventually I learned ways to cope.
Age 11 – Don't cry or scream.
Because my fear was his high.
Age 14 – the violence stopped.
He took my innocence instead,
And told me it was okay.
Our little secret. Mum didn't need to know.
She found out, and life got worse.
When I was old enough, I ran away.
I kept my past from everyone.
Until HE came to my rescue.
Older, sophisticated, damaged too.
I fought him at every turn.
Until the unthinkable happened,
And I needed him to save me.
