BELIEVING
She used to hear them fighting in the room next door
And she could never understand
One time she even thought it was her fault
And she hoped they weren't too mad
She used to sit on the floor and cover her ears
Trying to block the noise
And even though the words weren't there
She could still feel the hurt
She used to close her eyes and wish
That things wouldn't always be this way
That daddy would hold her and mommy close
And not hit them everyday
She used to wonder how daddy could leave
Without even a goodbye
Her mommy tried to tell her that things would be okay
But long ago she stopped believing
And she just wants to fly away
