Don't give up. (To children being abused)
Sitting
  Home.
 *KNOCK*
 
     You arrived.
 
 I
  Hide. Away
 Anyways
 There is no place to be safe.
 
 Screams
    Nothing new by now.
 Steps
  I know what follows. Somehow.
 
 Fought
     One more afternoon. One
 more tear. Dropped.
  Don't surrender I say, but I know we won't last much more.
 
 Scratch.
  But this time it's not alone;
 This time something comes. (Drunk)
 
 Within you
 
 holding something.
 You call, Lou.
 I won't answer.
 
 Steps.
  I know this time we won't survive.
 We won't make it.
 But at least I thank God for live.
 
 Good you, take no compasion.
  Good 
 
   me. Play hide and seek.
 
 Shower! That's.
  I pretend to bath. You
 sleep. I survive.
 
 Go to school.
 On my bike.
  Everything's cool.
 Now's alright.
 
 But today is different.
 I got tired.
 Instead of home went to police.
 It's not only anymore desired.
 
 New family.
 
 *KNOCK*
 
  But this time I'm safe
 I don't need to pay
 
 
 
   Anymore
 For how you behave.
