Talk About It, Let It Stop!

Tears come to my eyes

And mom never acts surprise

Letting her rollercoaster of men

Keep abusing me all over again

All because they pay our bills

Boyfriends of hers take their pleasured fills

Out on me and it hurts, I feel bruised

Used for their convenience, fully abused

Tears come and on my cheeks they dry

I can’t scream out loud if even I try

These nightly visits have turned me into a shell

Left me emotionless and created my Hell

Evil has surged into my life

Trusted into me like an assailants knife

I am wounded but mommy doesn’t care

Tonight she sent a man in here

She pretended that she was fast asleep

Then he came in and the evil trusted in deep

On the radio I heard of some who cared at Paredos

I Wish You Were…

I was promiscuous and got a child

Was kicked out from home and lived poorly styled

I got another son from the father of my boy

Should’ve used prophylactics but he said wouldn’t enjoy

He screamed at the children for the slightest thing

Yelled to the top of his voice, unceasing

One night when from a nightmare the children arose

Uncaringly he grabbed a belt ready to share blows

When I stopped him and argument broke out

Everything was my fault he started to shout

Room after room, he cried out to the kids with blatant scorn

Exclaiming vehemently “I wish you were never born!”
