These Words Scream

Home is where the harms is

The yelling and the screaming needs to stop
I hate monthly visits from the ambulances and the cops
The shame and bruises are just beginning
So tell me why I myself am not winning
He gets so mad and angry but no one knows why
I hide in my room because that's the only way to survive
My family didn't believe me until they saw themselves
The threw away all my belongings because I tried to get help
I used to be afraid and cry until I was SICK
Until the cops said that BLOOD is thicker then WATER trick
I got so mad that I couldn't take it anymore
So I cut myself until my blood hit the floor
I cut myself because that's the only way
I showed pain
My mom thought I was crazy possibly even insane
They left dreadful scars and more and more marks
But home is where the HARM is until it's my time to depart
