Do you not remember what it's like?
to hear your parents scream and fight?
To hear the glass shatter and fall
and wake you up in the middle of the night.
Don't you remember the pain you felt?
The hurt, the tears, you wish would just disappear.
Stuck in the middle you wanted to cry,
to turn invisible and even die.
How can you not remember all those times of agony?
Have you forgotten that time you vowed, "that'll never be
me"?
I wish you would remember, and do it now.
Because I feel trapped, yet I am willing to take a vow.
A promise to me,
and my future kid,
I promise I will never cause hurt like they did
