Mum Why Do You Hurt Me

You put bars on my window You put locks on my door And when I yell and scream You throw me around the floor You hurt me when you feel like it You burn me when ur mad You tell me I’m a mistake when you’re feeling sad You try to hide me away You try to hold me down And when I fight back You push me all around Ive taken hits in the head Broken ribs too But no matter how much you hurt me I will always love you When your old and frail And you need a helping hand Ask me and ill be there Your wish is my command But don’t you think I love you For the way you treat me now For I only love you Because your my family For ever and now.

Tracey, this is such a sad write that touched me deeply. I hope you did not personally have these experiences because no one should be treated like that. Excellent write. Hugs and warmest regards. Pandita
