You have never understood the fear in my voice, shaking and quivering, for life

You have never understood the fear in my voice, shaking and quivering, for life
i begged for my dad 
dripping bloody,
pants, underwear running low dangling on my knees
"please pick me up, im..maiden lane..? i'm scared dad. it's dark. and i don't know where i am please.."
i cried 
aching painfully, 
"i'm on my way, stay right there. telephone box?" 
"mhm.." i cried like dying dog. 
the click of the phone as he hung up, 
pained into my creeping silence 
i swallowed into myself, 
dripping in the puddle of blood,
that stains my underwear dangling at feet
i press for the pain to mellow but 
of course, it doesn't
and blur my vision into the tears streaming bloody hot down my cheeks 
feeling my burnt blonde hair and smeared mascara along and in my eyes
the date did not end well
especially when i had to cry to my dad to take me home
