My Music

I don't care if

They say it's bad for my hearing

I don't care if

The pain in my ears is too much

Because

The pain in my soul

Is always so much more

So I plug headphones in

Stick them in my ears

Turn the music on

Play it 

Over and over

So I don't have to hear 

You yelling at me

"You're so worthless"

So I don't have to hear 

My siblings fighting and calling me names

That hurt like hell

So I don't have to hear

The outside world,

Stabbing me repetitively in the back

Only the sweet voices of the singers

The beckoning calls,

"You'll be okay. I'm right by your side, Now and forever."

So I don't care

What happens to the rest of me

So I don't care

As long as I can listen to

My music
