Emotional Games

A Broken Child
A Torn Heart
A Tear Unseen
A Girl Falling Apart

Another stupid argument
Another stupid Fight
With The Woman Who Lies To Me
Night After Night.

Last night Was the End
I finally Had enough
Because That man told me to leave
So I packed all my stuff.

I didn't know Where I'd go
I didn't know what I'd do.
I didn't care who followed,
I was going to pull through.

But That man called an Uncle
Followed me in through the woods
I told him to leave me alone
That I'd survive, that I could.

But instead he grabbed for me,
Took me by the arms,
I screamed and cursed at him,
Telling him of the harm.

I fought against him, screaming still
And Kicked against him more.
I was trying to be free
But He held on more.

He said that I was making a fuss
Over something so "small"
I told him that he should go to hell
That he should let me fall.

But the man held on,
Telling me to hear him out
I told him to let me go
I had yelled and had Shout

And then that woman came over
And slapped me across the face.
I screamed at her too,
As he held that painful embrace.

I screamed to her
That she wasn't my mother, never
Then she went away
And again I fought with that man forever.

Until She came back with a new person
With Someone I adore.
That person took me to their house
Sat me down once we entered her living room door.

I was lost in my mind
Behind a door in the dark.
Muttering five names
And a hole forming in my heart.

She had called an ambulance,
Sent that woman away.
I was taken to the hospital
And Couldn't have it any other way...

For I was locked behind the door
Of torment in my mind
I looked around that room
But darkness I could only Find.

Five Names I called.
I cried out from within.
I called for Myles; My Love
For Elias, Chris, Zack And Deven

I could barely move,
I could barely breath
I was trying to stop
Trying To Leave.

I never wanted to stay,
But I did for the ones I Love
But Last night I just wanted it to end,
I wanted to be taken down not above.

So There I was,
Recovering and saying names
This was it,
I'm playing The Emotional Game.
