Holidays

Everyone's happy, drinking and eating, Who would guess that inside I'm screaming, I know what happens when daddy starts drinking, The fighting and screaming ends in my beating, I played and dressed as if all was okay, Covering the bruises that never go away, Although my hope and spirit never strayed, I could only wish that his would've stayed, Tears fall to the ground with a crash, He's broken into his secret stash, A night ending as usual; broken in my bed, This time ending not in morning but death, I loved you daddy, why can't you come play?
