Have you ever listened to your parents screams and shouts
knowing that your family could do without
Have you ever layed in bed those long cold nights
knowing that is was something you did that started those fights
Have you ever froze knowing that there is nothing that you can do
just watch as everything goes to hell and comes unglued
Have you ever been denied to see your dying brother
crying your eyes out like no other
Have you ever turned your back on the one you truly love
expecting it to be the best thing that you could think of
Have you ever held a gun to your head or a knife to your wrist
knowing all it took was just one pull or one little twist
Have you ever been molested by the person you trust most
7 years of this young girls life tainted by the boy of which i boast
Wow. Powerful words.
There are so many people with similar problems in there lives
and I think this poem speaks volums for them
Great work
