Stop

Please understand I'm not over reacting

No physically it's not causing me pain

But emotionally it hurts just the same

 

I wake up to the sounds of screams

A mother and son

Taking violence to the extreme

Insomnia will last another night

How could anyone sleep with that image in their mind

 

What twisted form of love do you show?

A corrupted family

This has to go

 

So stop

Take a long hard look

Read the situation

Its as plain as an open book

 

Im glad you can sleep after all the screams

After taking love and anger to the very extreme

But for me the pain will last another night

I'm only hoping things will be alright

Yeah, things will surely be alright! Such a nice explanation of the deepened sadness! It is full of passion.

Good execution of thoughts with words chosen.

Thank you.

[Amber]

This is a greatly written poem and you can tell there is a lot of emotion behind it. I know things will be ok after time takes its toll. =]

interstin piece of writing makes me wonder what inspired it

[John Stussy]

Families have the biggest fights, and it's because we know our family better than anyone else. Hope the situation improves for you, and please try to get some sleep, or you'll end up looking like me. Try showing them this poem, show them how you feel.
