A Child's Lament (please comment)

by Lizzie
in in my tiny cubicle / private vacuum with books and random dancing

December 13th, 2009

Two voices screaming from the ends of the earth

Me trapped in the middle

Only reason they're together is my birth

Me trapped in the middle.

Why can't they love each other?

Is it because of me?

Why can't she be both wife and mother?

Is it because of me?

Yelling, cursing, saying hurtful things

Do they really mean it?

Their words wound and pierce and really sting

Do they really mean it?

It's like being buried in hot lava

One wrong step and it explodes

Explodes into nothingness

One wrong step and it explodes.

Your world - my world

Gone like that, shattered into a million pieces

You hold the shards and wonder what happened

Gone like that, shattered into a miillion pieces.

Pa still says before dinner and lunch

"Thankyou God for family and food"

I still set three plates for breakfast and brunch

When will it become two?

 

When will it become two?

Haha "disturbing"? I'm a bit

Haha "disturbing"? I'm a bit freaked out by how most of my poems are supposedly really disturbing O.o lol

I do have other happier/less morbid/not-so-disturbing poems :) But I can be very dark too. :p

thanks!
