Why.....?!?!?

Questions run through my brain With the force of a hard driving rain As I try to sort my thoughts, confusion abounds I'm fighting myself as an echo resounds A child cringes in the corner hiding from his father Knowing it could be worse from his mother Screamed at and beaten for no reason He runs to his mother who commits treason Crying, sobbing, praying for it all to end His mind has shattered beyond the ability to mend Helpless, feeling hopeless The child crawls inside his mind In search of adventure and the hope That a better future he will find.
