Crazy©

Last night was crazy
It’s still a little dazy
I finally faced my fears and said something
But now I feel stupid
But kind of not really
It should be for the best
So far so good
But who knows nothing turns out as it should
He hollered at my momma
It was if he was hollering at me
She doesn't stand up for herself
Sometimes its like she’s three
Was it wrong to act so strong?
I should feel better than I do
I should feel relieved
So why do I feel worse?
Sitting in my room I had to defend myself from them
Even my own mom took his side
Sometimes I wish I could just run and hide
So like always I gave up
I just told myself, “Raven what’s the use?”
Man I was so confused
So now when he walks into the room
I put on a fake smile get the broom or find something to do
To occupy myself
So I wont hurt myself
It wouldn’t be this way
If she would just tell him to go away
Even with all these rhythms
I still find the time
To hurt myself
To cut myself
But it doesn’t matter
No one believes me when I tell them
All the things he does
