Mother, please stop

It's all i hear when he's around
mother screaming
at the top of her lungs
father saying stop
telling her to calm down
i hear mother throw things
break things
a slap in the face
i hide my face under my pillow
trying to block it all out
until he leaves
but still she's screaming
but now she's screaming at me
telling me that he needs to move out
i tell her he did nothing wrong
he's always been there for you mother
why do you make him feel like s h i t
whenever he is around
what did he do to deserve that
what did i do to deserve this
i realize that it's never going to change
that mother can never get rid of her temper
that father is never going to stop coming back
the minutes turn to hours
the hours turn to days
I'm still trying
trying to block it out
there is nothing i can do
to change the way she acts
nothing i can say
to calm her down
so I'll just learn to deal with it
it's all i can do
