Hit Me Once, Hit Me Twice

This poem was for my English Social Justice Project and I liked it so I wanted to put it up to see.

SMACK! Hit me once,

The pain is all around.

SLAP! Hit me twice,

I'm bleeding on the ground.

CRASH! I fly out the door,

I don't think I can move anymore.

CRACK! My bones split from the core,

I don't think I can run anymore.

SPLASH! My tears drop from my face,

Please don't, this hurts, I'm only eight.

Very powerful and scary as I read it. My chest was about to burst from my chest as it was beating hard at the horror of child abuse. You have written a great poem that any victim of child abuse would have nightmares about. I think you did a great job here. The words sting as you read them.
