They Fight

By MaryHall

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Mom and Dad are fighting Mom and Dad have fought all my life I hate to hear them cussing I hate the sound of all they're screaming Say whatever you want,it will not quench your fire Don't try to understand Don't try to fix it at all Little sister's listening Little sister's watching TV Pretending not to hear them Not seeming bothered at all It's the only home that she's known Just a child but she knows If she tried to stop they're war She'd pay the price for trying This place of love has turned so cold They're sceaming,they're fighting,I hate it Oh God I can't stand it. Now Mom is crying All the kids are hiding away Dad is always yelling He says he don't wanna live anymore I see no love in they're hearts, but there's nothing I can do And it will happen again and I'll just have to sit through Written December 22nd, 2001 © on Oct 26 2002 09:53 AM PST   20 • 0 • 1
