Underneath in My World, by Sweet Posionous Memories Subscribe to rss feed for Sweet Posionous Memories

The screams echo off the distant wall,
the sound of punches never once stall.
Hands over my ears, hidden underneath
noone to find me, for I am beneath.

The words of hatred fly out like poison,
the baby sceams for you to stop.
I look at him and pick him up,
to take him underneath with me.

We sit there holding eachother crying,
covering our ears to the fighting undying.
I hold my little brother trying,
I have to be strong for him instead of hiding.

I leave him here underneath,
as I walk out to face the fight.
Wanting to go back underneath,
I walk into both their sight.

They keep on fighting as they tell me to leave,
I keep walking until im in the middle of them.
They relise then that I will not leave,
not this time not without one of them.

My mother tried to take my hand but i refused,
my step-father did the same thing, refused.
I looked at them and only wanting to be underneath,
said "You fight again and I'll leave with my brother."

They looked astonished as I walked away,
but not a fight was fought any other day.
Now I no longer have to cower in fear,
beneath a desk, underneath in my world.

Thank you. I wrote it because my mom and dad had been figting a few weeks ago so I wrote this is a reminder in a way.
