(trigger warning: child abuse, suicide mentioned)

daddy

how many times should she hurt us for you to stop giving her chances?

how many times will she make us cry so that you finally take us away from her?

how hard should we cry and express our pains to convince you that we’re barely hanging on by a thread?

what will it take for you to figure out that as much as you believe that letting this woman take us in will give us a “good life” in the future, it’ll convince us that we don’t have anything to live for as well?

will you wait until one of us dies, daddy?

will you wait until one of us commits suicide, and only then would you realize how wrong you were?

daddy, i’m tired

daddy please believe me, i don’t know if i’m going to survive until adulthood

daddy please, i want to die

daddy please i just want the pain to stop

why did you only believe me when your sister told you of the things your wife did to us?

why didn’t you believe me?

why did you pretend like there wasn’t anything wrong here?

i wish mom aborted me
