they dont start out angry,tormented or mean,kids just act on what they have seen,
so pick and fight and tear them apart,just know that all of this hate...you put in their heart
you are poisoning them with the lies that you tell,when all they want is your love,
god can hear you from heaven above
you say things like your father doesnt love me,he is a drunk stupid liar and should be hung from a tree,mom all of these things you say about dad it hurts us so much and makes us feel sad.
i never downed you.or the words that you say,but you will answer to god on your judgement day,so remember all you said the words cut to the bone,when you sit all alone in the days you grow old.

I don't guess parents will ever understand that those angry morose things do affect and torment their children. Everything we say and do is reflected in the eyes of our children. Negativity, hatred and revenge should not be reflected back to us through their little sad eyes. This is a very strong emotional write. Congratulations.

Great Write, children do learn from those that they look up to as well as their parents and they pick up on all sorts of things. Amazing write, brings a lot thoughts to mind.

what institution did you get this precious piece hung up in? The first 2 lines seem very familiar. I worked in mental health for awhile, maybe they had it posted there as well. Just a couple of notes here. you have some words misspelled: the first line (Innocent), and I should always we capitialized. After a comma you need a space. This is so sad.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
