Parents

 Huddled in a corner

Knees pulled up to his chest

Head bowed upon his knees 

He crys


Night after night

Day after day

His parents fight

No one is physically hurt

But all the yelling 

Drives him mad


As his parents yell at each other

In another room

Tears roll down his face


He wants to run away

He wants to hide

Leave all fighting behind 

.


There are good days

Teese help him hold on

But few and far between they come


He'll sob

He'll cry

As his parents fight

Day after day

Night after night

Evening waves

  Evening waves crash the shore The sun goes down upon the beach once more Hear the gulls cry good night  As they fly by
