This is a sad and heartfelt post Shirley as children are often victims of domestic abuse that scars them for life. Your poem is skilfully written with good rhymes and Metre and your message was loud and clear here, a talented piece, I wish I had a six left for you, this deserves one, love Dolly x x x

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This tender-hearted tale of your inner child is sweet and sad at the same time. This made me cry as my tears fell reading the scary time you had as a child. The print was large enough to read easily with my poor eyesight. The picture choice added a touch of meloncholyness to the piece. I feel for you and can relate since my mother threatened to run away from her mental illness woes.
I feared for my safety since my father would not have been able to raise me and my other siblings so a foster home would have been for me if she had left.
You laid out carefully how your inner child had been hurt. Well-chosen words and the rhyme scheme helped to accentuate the meaning of the themed poem.
Thanks for touching my heart.

Yes, I guess your poem triggered my past painful experiences.
Bringing out the inner child is a good idea. It helps us heal.
