Dont Forget

driving in the car
it seems like a forever since youve held me
played with me
said anything that wasnt in the form of a knife

you drop me off at a place ive seen more than my own house
why is that?
what are you hiding from me?
i might as well run away from this life

im being held back
the youngest of our newly broken family needs me
im too little for this
but i understand more than you think

you curse so loud it hurts my ear drums
i scream at the top of my lungs
for the smallest moment of attention
you turn and say youre sorry, but it doesnt take anything back

today i turned 6
and from now on nothing will ever be the same
though i see you back in my world
i know the next day you'll be gone again

all i want is an apology....
can you give me that??
please??
