I forgive you Mum and Dad

by Amanda   Mar 24, 2005


You said that you would leave her,
and never let her make me cry,
but it never seemed to happen,
so why did you have to lie,

You also used to beat me,
with your biggest belt,
said she made you do this,
sad and lonely is what i felt,

You said it was all my fault,
That i was beaten like a rug,
and now that i am twenty,
you can't take me for a mug,

You used to make me promises,
you know you couldn't keep,
when the promise didn't happen,
all i could do is weep,

I used to believe all your lies,
From only being six years,
you said i was your princess,
you never stopped my tears,

But

i still love you so much Dad,
I will always love Mum too,
I am willing to forgive,
although I'm mad at you.

    that's really sad when people get taken away from their parents... even if their parents don't deserve kids... my step-niece and nephew just got taken away from their mom 3 weeks ago... she wants them back... and i hate to say it but i hope she doesn't get them back... they deserve a chance to get the best out of life...
