Why, Daddy?

Don't cry
Gotta be strong
To fight
The terror
And tell my lil' bro
Its ok
As he hears the screaming
And the bottles breaking
He was only 3
When daddy
Took his anger out on him
And broke 3 of his ribs
Gave him a black eye
And a bloody lip
Why?
Daddy
Doesn't know
He says
Hes sorry
Over
And over
But
I don't know
It just doesn't seem to stop
Everytime he drinks
He hurts us
And it doesn't change
Why?
Am
I no more
Than a punching bag
To you
Father
Daddy
Don't you love me
You say
You do
But then you hit me
Please
Don't break
Another bone
As I lay here
Hiding
And crying
Protecting
My little brother
Your son
As we look up
And wonder
Why?
Why
Why
Why us
Why you
Why the abuse
I'll never be like you
I drink
But
Not like you
And
I wish
You could feel
The pain
You inflicted
On us
Daddy.
We scream
Why
And you don't hear us
You're immune
To the crying
To the screaming
Why
Why
Why do you do this
Why?
