I own nothing! Everything is owned by J.K Rowling.


My name is Harry.

I am 3.

My eyes are swollen

I cannot see,

I must be stupid

I must be bad,

What else could have made

My Uncle so mad?

I wish I were better

I wish I weren't ugly,

Then maybe Aunty

Would still want to hug me.

I can't do a wrong

I cant speak at all

Or else I am locked up

All day I'm awake

I'm all alone

The house is dark

My relatives aren't home

When my Aunty does come home

I'll try and be nice

So maybe I'll just get

A few whippings tonight

I just heard a car

My Uncle is back

From Charlie's bar

I hear him curse

My name is called

I press against the wall

I try to hide

From his evil eyes

I'm so afraid now

I'm starting to cry

He finds me weeping

Calls me mean words,

He says it's my fault

He starts to slaps and hit me

And yells at me more,

I finally get free

And run to the door

He's already locked it

And I start to bawl,

He picks me up and throws me

Against the hard wall

I fall to the floor

With my bones nearly broken,

And my Uncle continues

With more bad words spoken,

"I'm sorry!", I scream

But now it's much too late

His face has been twisted

Into an unimaginable shape

The hurt and the pain

Again and again

Oh please God, have mercy!

Oh please let it end!

It burns so bad and hurts even worse

And he finally stops

And heads for the door

While I lay there motionless

Sprawled on the floor

I hear someone curse then it all goes black

When I woke up

I knew I wouldn't be able to go back.

My name is Harry

I am three,

Tonight my Uncle

Murdered me.
