i stand right in front of you
waiting for you to look at me
through hooded eyes i look at your face
and wonder why you lied
you look at me and still manage not to see me
look right past me, pretend i am not there
i show you my arms, hips,legs, stomach, chest
do you believe me when i say i did it
do you understand, its nothing to do with you
learn and help, dont yell and tell threats
it doesnt matter now does it
tell your lies to cover it up, dont say i did it
who are you protecting more me or you
i stand right in front of you
waiting for you to look at me
my eyes stay on the ground
finding the floor more interesting
i can feel you look at me
and still i look away, as not to lose ground
i talk quickly rushing the words together
did you hear what i had to say
i walk out the door, not looking back
do you care, will you try to stop me
tell me its ok, tell me you will help
i dont hold me back, i turn and look
you stand there staring at the me
but not moving, not seeing
its over now and you know it
goodbye mommy
live your life as you wish
and i will learn to live mine
