Dysfunctional

by Nat-a-Tat   Apr 13, 2004


Tiny lights glistening above my head
Only wishing I was still in bed
Tiny lights to hide my pain
I remember crouching close to my bed frame

Why can't they just listen to me for once
Making me feel like I am a dunce
I know what I say is for real
Everyone ignores how I feel

Chords ravelling around like snake
Around the neck I tried to break
Mom used to do it too
It was her way of trying to get through

Glass shattering on the floor
Hands pounding on the door
Shouts and cries of " just leave me alone"
Stuffed animals being thrown

Not many live life like this
Skin being hit by angry hands
Sealed with a kiss
Wishing it was all a dream
With shining lights that glow like beams
