• Call Me A Name,
    Kill Me With Your Words.
    I'll Pretend Not To Care,
    As I My Ground,
    Because I Won't Back Down.

    Can't Comprend,
    Try To Understand.
    Your Words Mean Nothing,
    Just A Drunken Slur.
    Meaningless Words...

    Your In My Face,
    I Can Smell The Alcohol In Your Breath.
    You Draw Back Your Hand,
    But I Don't Flinch.
    I Wont Back Down.

    My Expression Is Blank,
    After Your Hand Hits My Face.
    I Won't Cry.
    You Don't Get The Satisfaction.
    I'll Stand My Ground.

    Mom Watches While Sobbing,
    My Sister Stares In Disbelief,
    As I Don't Shed A Single Tear.
    Watching My Daddy's Face Carefully,
    I Don't Show A Bit Of Fear.

    I Know What Will Happen Next,
    He'll Hit Me Again, Harder Than The Last.
    I Brace Myself For The Second Blow,
    But He Heads For The Door Instead,
    Maybe This Time He'll Be Gone For Good.

    He Comes Back A Few Hours Later,
    Stammering His Apologies.
    I Look At Him Blankly,
    Does He Really Think I'll Forgive Him?
    The Ignorant Fool.
