I should not have to be afraid to live in my own house.
I should not have to deal with being put down and criticized until I don't feel like I exist anymore.
I should not have to apologize for things that I did not do.
I should not have to feel guilty for existing.
I should not have to hope and pray he won't be home when I am.
I should not have to hear how everybody else in this house is better than me.
I should not have to hide in my room.
I should not have to have a feeling of dread in my stomach everytime I pull into the driveway and see his car.
I should not have to apologize for crying.
I should not have to...
...but I do.
