When I was young,
I had to grow up fast,
Because I was alone,
While everyone was together.
/
I did a pile of dishes,
With my siblings,
5,6, and 7 year olds,
Because my step dad was lazy.
/
I remember when I was 9,
My step dad tried kicking me out,
While I was in just a towel,
Because I didn't clean my room.
/
I hated him,
He gave my siblings all of his,
Attention,
Because they were sane when I wasn't.
/
I blame myself,
Because no one liked me,
I was a freak,
And everyone knew.
/
I was just a little girl,
And I was treated like trash,
And sometimes I can't help,
But just feel unloved.
/
My mother worked all day,
While my step dad was too lazy,
To even get a job,
And that destroyed me.
=
My step dad words hurt,
"Fatty Maddy" still echoes in my head,
And I'm 15 years old,
While that was 10 years ago.
/
Sometimes I wish,
My life was so much better,
Because I wouldn't be depressed,
And hurt.
