???

why can i never do anything right?

in this i look fat and that’s just too tight…

my hair and my room are always a mess 

please yell at me again that I’m the cause of your stress

my voice is too high and my grades are too low

please keep beating me down with nowhere to go. 

you wonder why I’m never around anymore

i mean, do you like getting screamed at when you walk through the door? 

it’s an unpleasant feeling when I’m in this house, 

with your voice like a lion and mine like a mouse…

regardless of the things i say or do, 

nothing will be good enough when it comes to you.

I’ve tried my best and I’ve given my all,

no matter what i do, i continue to fall. 

I’m tired of feeling like I do right now, 

without even a hand to help me up off the ground.

one thing for sure that I can guarantee 

is ill never treat my daughter like you’ve treated me.

Oh my god, just wow!
I definitely felt that.
There is a clear message in this poem and a lot of pain, I sense.
Thanks for sharing it, it was really good.
Thumbs up! :-)
