Family Life
Fathers drinking
mothers screaming
feel like I'm sinking
in a pit full of lies
Blank stares
as I enter the room
but being attacked by all their glares
you know ill be gone soon
I say hello
but no reply
all the neighbours hear
is mother cry
Anger and pain
swallow my home
should even call it that
I feel so alone
My bags are packed
no one asks why
I can no longer act
this is my goodbye
A note I leave
just saying why
as I wipe away my tears
with a bloody sleeve.
