Black eyes

By Canon

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

His hand raises and you start to shake he uses anything at all, today its the rake you constantly have a black eye friends ask what happened, you lie you try to hide your pain behind glasses you wish for the day he passes always an excuse for the injury you got you dream of the day he gets shot your mom knows not what goes on you sit crying in the corner till dawn been this way since you were born when he dies you know you wont mourn you'll never miss him, you hate his presence He says he's teaching you lessons Its time to speak up little one He wont stop..he's never done tell someone..they can help you others know what to do stand up to him and tell him thats enough your done taking his abusive stuff If this goes on any longer your gonna crack you'll lose your sanity...and never get it back he thinks he's god...punishing you the way he does he says this is the way it was back in his day this was the way you do something bad...you pay but you did nothing at all he had an accidental fall he's dead and questions no one will ask in his death you bask you did it but its over now the only way out that was how he went to far and your mind snapped you wanted to kill everytime you got slapped wipe your tears baby...he's gone from this place you never have to see his face © on Jun 02 2001 04:03 PM PST, Joshua   0 • 1
