Arguments

I can not stand this Screaming outside my door The screaming and yelling I try to ignore. It keeps getting louder As more screams appear One right after another It seems so hard to bear. It makes me want to cry But I try to stay strong But they need to stop Their fights last way to long. It never seems to help To try and cover my ears The screaming keeps getting closer I can hear them very clear. Cursing and swearing Is every other word They need to stop and realize Who this really hurts. Whose ears are being covered Whose eyes are being filled Whose heart is being torn in half It feels like being killed. We were one happy family Until the money tore us apart The saddest of the moments Is once again my brother departs. Leaving us four again The way it use to be Leaving more empty spaces Deep inside of me.
