What They Can't See Kills Me.

by Hologram   Oct 7, 2010


Watching a child,
Watching the fights,
Crying herself to sleep,
During the screams of the night.

Nestled in pillows,
Overtaken by tears,
They never realised
This would effect her over the years.

So afraid of this monster,
One that she hates,
Hatred comes from the anger
And the pain it makes.

If only a mirror could save it to see,
This child is hurting,
This child is me.

So scared to fall in love,
But tired of being alone,
I remember all those tears,
And the pain they have shone.

Now no longer a child,
But old enough to say,
I can't ignore these memories I live with,
I live with them everyday ..
