I sit in the shower
The falling water mixing with the tears
I cry and cower in fear
For the noises I hear
The angry voices out there
When I’m around they act
They pretend they are in love
But when I’m gone it’s push and shove
They have anything but love
For each other but
They try to last another day
To try to protect their daughters feelings
Little do they know I’m way past healing
I look up at the ceiling
And wonder if it would be better
If I just wrote them one last letter
Maybe then They can just leave
Go their separate ways
Without having to worry
Without being sorry
About what would happen to their poor daughter
Don’t have to try to lead the horse to water
They wouldn’t have to sacrifice their happiness
For someone who doesn’t deserve it
In the first place
When they look at each other
I see the look of hatred
On their faces
I’d rather sacrifice my life for their happiness
Then them sacrifice their happiness for my life
So this is it
I write a good bye letter
Telling them I’m doing this for the better
They might not see it now but
They will see in time
Just try not to cry
Mom and dad please dry your eyes
