Paying the price

Kailie Jackson



Why do you say sorry,

Do you find it pleasuring to lie,

You cant keep lying to her,

You have bruised her and hurt her,

And all you have to say is sorry?

 

You know she doesn't deserve this,

You know she has a small one,

She is just trying to help the small one,

You get mad at her for no reason.

 

Door slamming,

Screaming is getting louder,

Her cry for help is being yelled,

You cant do this forever,

You will get caught.

 

The small one is calling,

You know you went too far,

You don't regret it at all,

You slap the small one's hand,

You don't care anymore.

 

This is going too far, 

What have you done,

You did this to yourself, 

You were caught, 

You pay the price.

 

The small one is in a new home,

You destroyed a family,

You made them move to a hotel,

You are the problem,

Now you are paying the price.

      Well I wasn't the person who caused it, was actually my mom and her ex-boyfriend,
