Abuse

Your fear,

followed by your tears,

and caused by pain

 

Your doubt,

that you'll ever get out,

gets stronger everyday

 

Your nightmare,

full of horror and terror,

is now your reality

 

You want to be fearless,

you want to be brave,

you want to get out,

but that,

you doubt

 

Trembling,

in hopeless despair,

that uneasy feeling,

everywhere

 

The panic,

it comes from the fright

like a child without a nightlight

 

The trepidation,

that today will be your last day,

might never go away

Woah! I really loved this. Great job!!!!!!


My favorite part was,


"The panic,

it comes from the fright

like a child without a nightlight"

But a quick nip tick though, i felt the ending was perhaps too abrupt, any more ideas? it could go on longer but this works pretty well too.

Great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very good poem, I hope you don't get abused :(. I love how each section describes what the topic is. ( Not sure if I make sense, lol.) This is one of my favorite poems yet that I've read. This is a very sad poem though, I felt so sorry for the "character?" who's feeling this.
