You, <br />you told me it was better this way, <br />That You and daddy were better apart, <br />That daddy and mummy, <br />were gonna make a brand new start. <br /> <br />They told me, <br />Its okay to be angry, <br />at mummy and daddy or one, <br />That i needed to let it out, <br />It would make it better for everyone <br /> <br />That woman told them, <br />That i was dishevelled and paint-covered, <br />On friday at 2, when i was 8 years of age, <br />This meant the child should stay with her mother <br /> <br />That 'professional' counsellor, <br />Told me to tell her how i felt, <br />I didn't want to tell her, <br />how bad her lunch smelt. <br /> <br />That woman called mommy, <br />Told daddy she didnt want me, <br />Changing her mind in public, <br />where everybody could see, <br />what devotion she had for me. <br /> <br />That 'Lawyer' cow, <br />Told me to say what was on my mind, <br />asking me questions, <br />wasting my time. <br /> <br />They told me, <br />what to be, how to feel, <br />but little about what was happening, <br />It didn't matter about my thoughts or needs, <br />not that i'd tell [them], <br />those hypocrites. <br /> <br />It didn't matter, <br />how hard daddy worked for me, <br />How much mummy really cared [not much at all] <br />All that mattered was the lawyers fee, <br />And that 'counsellor's' various degrees <br /> <br />It didn't matter, <br />how much i cryed, <br />cause they never saw, <br />all the scars on the inside <br /> <br />They never saw, <br />everything inside me, <br />all of my thoughts, <br />all of my needs. <br /> <br />-parents can be stupid sometimes.-<br /><br />Jess Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/divorce-of-mummy-and-daddy/
