PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

We rarely have

A family outing

My parents know

They'll start fighting



It's like an endless war

Made up of words

They hurt just as bad

As long, sharp swords



They scream and yell

And sometimes they lie

Sometime's it's so bad

I just want to cry



I wish it could end

But I know it won't

They could get along

But they don't



I hate to watch

So does my brother

It's hard to see

Them hurt each other



My family's falling apart

Right before my eyes

All the hope in me

Slowly fades away and dies



I need someone to talk to

While I sit here in tears

Someone who will understand

All my doubts and fears



They don't realize

They can't see

That when they fight

They're hurting me



I dry my face

As they walk away

Both pretending

That it's all ok



In the end

All will be fine

Even if you have

Parents like mine
