My husband beat me again and again.
I tried to run away.
He found me and beat me again.
His friends told him where I was.
He said it would be worthless
to contact the police.
He said he would always look for me.
He said he would kill me if I ran away again.
He left two days later.
I took my youngest child and fled.
I left my older child with my mother.
I made the decision to come to the U.S.
Because he cannot follow me here.
I will be safe.

I love this. Are these your poems based on real cases?
