Dreamed of escaping his abusive home from "summary" of A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer

The boy never stopped yearning for a way out. Every night, as he lay on his bed with tears streaming down his face, he would close his eyes and picture a world where he was free from the torment of his abusive mother. In his dreams, he wandered through vast fields under clear blue skies, feeling the warm sun on his skin and the gentle breeze in his hair. He imagined himself laughing and playing, surrounded by a loving family who cared for him and protected him from harm. But as dawn broke, reality would come crashing back down on him like a heavy weight. He would force himself out of bed, steeling himself for another day of pain and suffering. His mother's cruel words and violent actions were always waiting for him, a constant reminder of the nightmare he lived in. Yet he clung to his dreams like a lifeline, a glimmer of hope that kept him going through the darkest of times. As he endured his mother's abuse, the boy found solace in his fantasies of escape. He would imagine himself running away, far from the prison of his home, towards a future where he could be happy and safe. In his mind, he was no longer a helpless victim but a brave survivor, determined to carve out a better life for himself. Despite the harsh reality of his existence, the boy never gave up on his dreams. They were his refuge, his sanctuary in a world filled with pain and suffering. And as he clung to them with all his might, he found the strength to endure, to survive, and to eventually break free from the chains that bound him to his abusive home.
