*I usually don't post the ones like these but I'm in my head tonight and decided fuck it*
I remember my dad warning my mother about you
How you were an asshole
How you were no good
How you would only damage us
I remember my mom ignoring him
How she took me with her
How disappointed my dad was
How much fear I obtained
I remember how you displayed yourself
How you acted like you were an innocent
How you tried to act like you gave a shit
How you tricked my mom into believing your bullshit
I remember how your gentleman act dissipated
How you would hit my mom in front of me
How you would both argue and scream
How you would throw her around
I remember screaming at you to stop
How I stripped my lungs dry getting your attention
How you would push me around
How you called me, a small child at 7, evil things
I remember my mom coming in my room
How she tip toed around
How she packed my things
How she whispered for me to be quiet and follow her
I remember you waking up to find us leaving
How you attacked her in front of me
How you put that knife to her throat
How you gently tugged it across her skin
I remember my mom getting away from you
How we hurried into the car
How you came barreling out of the house
How you threw rocks at our windshield
I remember my mom crying
How her tears would silently fall
How disappointed she was in herself
How she gave me a look of reassurance
I remember a change going through my mom
How she carried herself differently
How she looked different
How she would speak to me differently
I remember how you fucked up everything
How you ruined a part of my childhood
How you messed with my moms head
How you scarred us both
And I will never forget.
