"home of sorrow"
stop the yelling mom and dad
why are your voices always mad
i'm crying in a corner, feeling sad
all balled up, the noise is getting bad
why did u throw that cup
why did u break that dish
i'm only five, but i'm
already finished
with this
this shit is kiddish
my hopes and dreams diminish
yall are starting to sound foreign
like u british
if only u can here this
only if u could
then u would
fell so stupid
i see other children
and think to my self
if only i could borrow
there mom and dad
then no more home of sorrow
but then i wake up
and its tomorrow
another day of the same old cake
it feels like my lives a video
and u keep rewinding the tape
u don't realize
at this rate
u will only further complicate
my life, my future, my fate
this shits so irrate
why did u even have kids
what if i die with out
ever having a mate
only because you filled
my whole life with hate
i heard u talking about divorce
yall said your lives were
taking a different course
all this fighting makes me
feel like the source
bickering and screaming
words,voices,growing hoarse
the home of sorrow
now split in two
yall took it to
court, decided to sue
for custody, i'm through
what did i even do
being torn between u
i'm tired of being the home gym
work out your problems with him
don't tell me the faults
about her, my mind is dim
i'm not partial,
i won't choose between them
hopefully things will get better
home of sorrow, home of sin
Your writing is great! I grew up with fighting parents and the whole divorice issues. I'm now fucked up in the head because of it, I wish I could help other childern cope with this.
Wow this really hit home with me. I can relate to everything you said in this exactly. My parents are always arguing and they seem on the brink of getting divorced. But this poem was really well-written...it expressed all the feelings I have perfectly. I really enjoyed reading it!
Very sad and helpless feelings. Complications of adult relationship hurt the kids deep. The scars are carried as burden. I would call it child labor imposed by thoughtless unconcerned debonair. The hard toil, to rid his mind of scary impressions as a child to relate in good mental health.
