Seven Times Seven

You may not realize, 
but I remember the crashing and the screaming,
The helpless pleading, 
mostly directed at me.

I remember it so well,
The feeling of being shattered
by a family meant to hold me together.
Being chased but unable to run away.
Forced to stand and bear my shameful tears,
in a room filled with mockers.

If they beat me Seven times Seven,
could I refuse my forgiveness?
