when they finished mutilating me. My voice was gone from screaming. My body was raging with pain. I couldn't open my eyes. After all, I prayed so hard to die because I couldn't cope with the pain. All this only this see the age of 6yrs. I can still smell my bood
I felt everything. My body was on fire. I felt as if it was lit up from head to toe. Every part of the body was in pain. My flesh on the floor coated with sand. The cutter's hands look like she dipped in red paint. The nightmare is too much.
How is this happening to me. How are my screams ignored? How am I still alive? Pain just keeps on consuming me. It doesn't stop. It's constant. I am utterly exhausted. Death would feel better I tell myself. The hut stunk of blood.
The dun starts to peak through the Horror Hut. Everything smells bad. I hated going with my mom to the butcher shop. Today I felt I was butchered mercilessly. I feel hurt, confused and I don't know who too look at
My eyes can't bare to look at my mother. I can't cry anymore. I whimper, my pain too great. I feel so alone and unloved. My world ended within seconds. Replaced by fear, u trusting, and trauma is setting in. Just 6yrs all this
