You stare, at the photo, On your bedside table

You want him back You want to hug him tight

Wait. No you don't

He did that to you

You rub the patch where hair used to be, wanting it to be there

Its not

A finger reaches up and runs itself along the bridge of your nose

You wish it wasn't the way it was

But it is

You run down the corridor,

Into your sisters room

She looks fine

He didn't hurt her

As much as he hurt you

You run downstairs, into a very small room

He used to lock you in that room, no food, no drink, no bathroom

But you still hide there

When you are panicky

You feel around for a threadbare teddy,

With an eye hanging off

Thanks to him

You remember the past,

Because the shadows still haunt you,

Of the loud shouts, the punches, the kicks

You remember,

He called you rotten

But you were only three

You didn't know what rotten meant

But it sure seemed scary

He wished you weren't there,

But the tables turned

He was giving his daily beating,

To My sister and me,

But then Mom walked in,

As angry as can be

He stammers,

And drops me on the floor

With My heart aching

And my ribs very sore

She had, just then,

A very short fuse

She told him to leave

And he didn't refuse

He said he was glad,

To be away from 'that child,'

And left us in peace,

For the rest of our lives,

Because , the following week

It was announced on the news,

That he was dead

And it wasn't a ruse

Moms heart skipped a beat,

Sister's heart too,

But mine didn't

Not because I was blue

I didn't know what it meant

It was just a word

But then, your head begins to ache

With all these hurtful things

Tears spilling down your cheeks,

Because of what he did,

You run upstairs,

Into your nice room

You walk around, though,

In absolute anger,

And you pick up the photo,

And throw it afar

Because you, neither him,

Would not really care

But then Mom calls you for dinner

And your heart misses a beat

Because now the picture is broken,

And you feel so complete,

But Mom rushes upstairs,

Feeling ever so worried

And she sees the pieces of photo

Strewn across the room

But she gives you a hug,

And wipes your tears

Because now he has gone

She'd neither have worried

She cleans up the pieces

And you feel so much better

She takes you for dinner

With your sister and brother

And those memories have gone,

You've got a happy family

A grin spreads across your face,

And you give Mom a hug

Because that worry bug,

Has just gone kapoof!

Because you've got a better family

And that is good enough
