Poets are those who love,--who feel great truths, And tell them.

So Wrong

by Fickshonal

I hid in my room while my tears poured down
I couldn't help myself
While my mom survived the pain
That my father gave
I spent my time in my room all night
Hoping and praying for a different life
I heard the cries from my mother
And the shouts from my father
I couldn't help but hate him
An hour later my mom came in
Bruises covered and tears wiped dry
She was also dreaming for a different life
I wanted to get out but I was stuck
In that prison I called home
My daddy would leave while my mother cried
He didn't care about the pain
that he put her through that night
He came back in the morning
Even worse than the night before
I wanted to get out but I was stuck
In that prison I called home
You used to be my hero
But then you went so wrong
I used to think you were
my shelter from the storm
You used to love me
But then you hurt me
My mother's alright and I’m okay
I know I’m better of without you
But don't you still wonder
If your little girl's still alright
I thought you cared
But now I know you don't
But daddy, how'd you go so wrong
Did you ever really care if I was still alive?
Do you even remember what I look like?
You used to be my hero
But then you went so wrong
I used to think you were
my shelter from the storm
You used to love me
But then you hurt me
My mother's alright
And I’m okay
But I’ll never trust you again
Because I don't want to know what you are
I just know what you've been
I still hate you
For all the pain you gave
You scarred us both for life
And I used to cry all night
Hoping and praying for a different life
I wanted to get out, but I was stuck
In that prison I called home
You used to be my hero
But then you went so wrong
I used to think you were my shelter from the storm
You used to love me
But then you hurt me
My mother's alright
And I’m okay
But you used to be my hero
And then you went so wrong
I used to think you were
my shelter from the storm
You used to love me
But then you hurt me
My mother's alright
And I’m okay
But I’ll never trust you again
Because I don't want to know what you are
I just know what you've been
I still hate you
And I’m better off without you
But daddy,
How’d you go so wrong?
You used to be my hero
But now I don't know who you are
You used to love me
But then you hurt me
Why’d you go so wrong?
