I`m just .....a child

I'm just....a child

The images that were once there now lurk in my mind

the feeling of pain that was not far behind

the pain you struck into my heart

the feeling still grows even though were apart

soft and gentle the touch once was

but it grew deeper in anger

I'm just....a child

the nights around the table were you looked into my eyes

those baby blue eyes filled with hatred and lies

the pain you once felt it grew into me

the thing that was just there ,you didn't want to see

the memories that you wanted to leave in the dark

was your fear and all the pain

I'm just....a child

before i went to sleep you tuck me into bed

before shacking with fear and kissing my fore head

you walked out the door and turned out the light

the crying sobs that scar for years in the night

i sit in silence and listen to you cry

screaming in pain and wanting to die

I'm just ....a child

dad comes home and shouts through the door

i cant here mums sobbing no more

i walk to the stairs and see dad sitting at the table

mums on the floor to walk she is unable

i stair at mum gasped in blood

i guess mum got her wish

I'm just.... a child

i run to my room with the fear in my head

he comes into my room and nothing was said

he pulls back the knife then plunges into my chest

i try-ed my hardest to run ,i did my best

with my last grasping breath he kissed my fore head

as mum once did before she was dead!

I was....just a child!!
