The Boy In Me

by Halston Mather   Jan 10, 2005


There was a boy
Who led a very strainful life
Everyday he tried to please his "father"
It Never worked no matter how hard he tried,
This boy became engulfed in all of the hate
All of the hate that his "father" gave
And no matter what this boy seemed to do
Always seemed he was digging his own grave,
This "father" was completely unlovable
Because he never showed love back
And instead of wanting me and my mom
This "dad" would give us up for crack,
This man destroyed my childhood
That's something I CAN NEVER GET BACK
I've never been able to cry
So compassion is something I'll always lack,
LET THIS LIFE GO..LET THIS LIFE GO
For I can no longer show
What I've needed to show
In a frosted heart nothing can grow.
