Ill leave; or you'll go.

by e LIZ a beth   Dec 29, 2006


Daddy where are you?
Where can you be?
I can’t seem to find you
When you’re in front of me

You drink all day
And you drink all night
You push me around
And it isn’t right

You tell me you love me
That you do care
But if you really did,
Then the bruise wouldn’t be there

You see me in pain
You watch me cry
Yet you still drink
As my happiness dies.

Your fine in the morning
But once the afternoon hits
You sit down and drink
And you through your fists

You push me down
You kick and you scream
you think its okay
but i disagree

I can’t take it anymore
The constant pressure
To watch what I say
So I don’t get hurt.

But no matter what
I do or say
You’ll always drink
Your way is your way.

But if this goes on
I’m letting you know
That I’ll have to leave
Or you’ll have to go.

    This poem is okay.. not my favorite.. liek a 4/5 but ofcourse i voted 5 anyway.. um.. it doesnt flow that well like "You tell me you love me
    That you do care
    But if you really did,
    Then the bruise wouldn’t be there" the last line there is just super long.. and there are some other stanzas like that but for the most part its a good poem
