Torn

Torn by the aruguements
By our words of violence
By the hatred in our system
And by us not getting rid of them

Torn by the words exchanged
The way we act, he will be deranged
Torn by us not wanting to change
I never thought I'd be falling in a world so strange

Torn by behavior that seems so ruthless
By the harsh words of rudeness
Arguement after arguement not showing any progress
Day after day, it seems so endless

If we continue, he will be forever scorn
Scorn by the loveless home that painfully sticks like a thorn
Scorn by us being stubborn and leaving him to miserably mourn
Scorn by a family torn
