Laying down I think of nothing
I know so many love me
Tossed and turned
My life is a lesson learned
Seeing the upside of mommies smile
Seeind daddy cry when held me when I was tired
Tonight is a holy night
One that shows I am innocent to the core
Pain to me is unlearned but sad to so many not just the poor
I see him coming yelling and screaming
Im only wet
Im just telling you so you will help me
Yes I got tears it is uncomfortable
This is wet
My skin is tender even to a newborn
I smell something aweful
Must be daddies bottle
He picks me up
Hurts my ears
Im trying to show you
My cry is only a message
Up and down
Side to side
Daddy this confuses me even inside
He throws me to the couch
I feel this streak of pain up my side
Daddy I cant see your smothering my life
I gasp for air
I feel this sharp pain in my arm
I cant push up
Daddy im just a baby im not strong enough
Born on a holy day
Christmas is what they call it
Died on a day
Easter is what they said it was
I sit now on daddies knee
He could not take what he had done to me
Daddy see no bottles here
Lets go fishing
I know a heavenly creek that is near
