I Wish That It Was

Mommy and Daddy are at it again Daddy's yelling at Mommy Calling her a **** then hitting her I keep wishing and wishing For the loud noises to stop I cry and I pray Why do they fight it's scary I wish it would stop I try to think of happy thoughts I want to go to a place With no yelling or fighting I keep crying as if the world going to end Mommy came to my room Her cheek was red Her hand had blood on it Mommy started to cry while she hugged me Mommy told me what Daddy did to her Then Mommy told me she killed Daddy The police came They took Mommy away from me I cried and yelled and screamed Mommy smiled and said it's for the best I just wish that it was

Thank you for sharing. I wish you luck in your journey through the darkest recesses of the human mind. It's not pretty. I wish I can tell you what awaits you when you work through the nightmares but I haven't yet either. I know you'll be a happier person though. That's a given.
