Missunderstood
Yelling and screaming
He told us we were
Worthless and unwanted
Alone and afraid
Not wanting my
Mom to feel that pain
Running and hiding
Trying to save us
From him abuse
Moving and moving
He kept finding us
Saying he wanted us
Lies and lies
He kept up the
Abuse and pain
Crying and hiding
Not wanting others
To know my pain
My sister didn't
Understand what
she was doing
Physical and mental
Abused to no end
Beat and yelled at
It wasn't her
It was him
Her abuse from him
Abused and unwanted
I felt lonely
Not sharing my pain
I couldn't feel
I was numbed
To the struggles
Years and years
And it still feels
Like yesterday
Now and again
It all comes back
The words the memories
All the pain
Condensed together
In a fiery ball
Crying alone
I don't let others know
Still hiding my pain
Misunderstood
Thought of wrong
I'm not my father
Mean and annoying
They don't understand
How could I trust again
My pain showed
But they didn't
Understand
Still in pain
Still wanting them to
Understand
