Good bye Daddy : Poem on Abuse

written by Poet : Jeff Pelsang


"Stop hitting my mom", Leave her alone!

Get out of our house, get out of this home,

Then little Austin watched as his Daddy hit harder,

This couldn't be his daddy he thought, that man is not my father,

My father is kind and loving and wouldn't hurt my mom,

Stop it, leave her alone, he covered his ears till the yelling was gone,

He covered his eyes with the blanket so he couldn't see the pain,

His momma bruised and battered being beaten over and over again,

But this time he felt the need to protect his poor hurt mom,

He grabbed his Daddy's leg and bit,

Then with one massive punch young Austin was gone,

His father stood above him crying, Im so sorry son,

Only a few words slipped through his lips,

Good Bye Daddy, please leave my mommy alone..
