Get Through
Day in and day out
I hear you both fight
in a second, at the drop of a dime
every day and night
Out my door I hear you scream
frightened and scared I hide
in my closet, under my bed
will the voices ever die?
Do you ever think how your words affect me?
they rush around in my head
I don't cry or whine or complain a lot
I write my emotions down instead
Line by line, verse by verse
my thoughts come out clear
but no matter how much you read
you never seem to hear
So once again, I write out my heart
but this time I'll hide it from you
because I know no matter how hard I try
my emotions will never get through.
