You Know I'M Only Two
You Know I'm Only Two
A Poem by Debbie_Philly
" This is a piece I was asked to do a long time ago about child abuse..... its not my best because I was rhyming all the time back then.... but I tried ;) "
You Know I’m just Two
Mommy what’s the matter?
What did I do wrong?
Was I singing to loud?
While I was humming a song.
Daddy what did I do ?
Can I fix it for you?
I didn't mean to break it.
You know I’m only two
Shut up you brat
You make me sick
mommy don’t say that
I’ll show you a trick.
Daddy please don’t hit me
I wont do it again.
The cup on the table
was to close to the edge
Mommy don’t lock me away
in my room where it’s dark.
Cant you and daddy see
that you’re breaking my heart
You know I’m just a baby
please lower your tone
I only repeat what I see
what I learn in my home
Mommy please hold me tight
all I want is your love.
Instead all I get is a huff
and a shove.
Oh I really did it now
Daddy’s getting the belt
He hit me so hard
that I can’t cry for help
All I see now is dark
why did I have to die
I loved you so much
and I really did try.
all I needed was love
that’s all you had to do
Why wouldn’t you see that
You knew I was just two
