Hopeless
she said it never happened
it's all in your head
well tell me mommy
why do I want him dead?
because for years
he has used me,abused me and I
have shown no signs of wanting to die
but I'm done pretending
begging for a so called happy ending
for him to die in a burnt out rage
as my own father he sent me in a daze
my minds racing an I stay stuck in a maze
he's the happy father that was never called crazed
it's more then the past
it's my everyday life
do you know he touches me mommy
when you sleep at night
well you said just to lock the door
but he picks it
put something infront of it
and he kicks it
So tell me it never happened
as he fails the test
what side of daddy did you like best?
the sweet heart that rapped me
the cunning mind that hates me
the hands that take me
or the smile that violates me
because mommy you said for years
anyone would be lucky to have a man like him
so every man would be luckly to have thoughts so dim?
I'll tell you mommy
he's just a fake
he is one of the most fatal and flawed mistakes
