[hometext] => it isnt always the parents fault...
[bodytext] => Age seven Had a break down Parents up at night Kept up everytime by fright Stress took over their lives Because the monsters came out It took a lot longer to leave Then the day it came But soon it was forgotten And locked away Things got normal Parents were happy And as long as that was so To the little girl, nothing else mattered Fifth grade reered its ugly head Every day she wished she could be dead No friends to sit with No one to talk to And and the stress came back to the parents And the monsters came back too This is just a little problem Mommy said to daddy Well take her out of here Place her somewhere she’ll be happy And maybe just maybe She will have some friends And we can all be One big happy family again. 7th grade exploded after only one year of happiness little girl wouldn’t go to school she was having a break down again somehow the monsters came back without even trying she brought the monsters back again and and left the whole family crying and brought those years of stress learned how to hide her fears controlled the break downs too so no one could see them but her and no one in the family knew instead of scaring the monsters away this time she locked them up inside her and kept then trapped against their will to devour her and terrify her 8th grade got messy the little girl learned to cut she learned how good the pain feels and how it hurts so much parents were devastated the monsters came back they didn’t know they had been there this whole time digesting their little girl like a snack two months of therapy is all it seemed to take and their little girl was smiling ofcourse she was the only one who knew it was fake and the monsters were not destroyed they still lingered inside her and the parents had no idea the monsters still lurked there right beside her 9th grade proved to be the worst to these two parents filled with stress the little girl found out about drugs and became intrigued by the mess parents took her back to the useless therapy hoping this time that the monsters wouldn’t intervene she promised and she promised shed never do it again but all it took was a month or two and a special little friend that supplied her with anything and everythign that filled her dreams all that her parents catching her had done was teach her how to make them think she was clean. Summer seemed like it would be a relief To the ‘happy’ little family But little did they know Their not so little girl was on her way to breakdown number 3 And this time they didn’t recognize her And even she herself thought she had gone crazy She never left the house Couldn’t even sit down to watch tv Just locked herself in her room And stayed there hidden Hoping shed never have to leave Or ever be seen outside again It took some more therapy To get rid of these monsters that came back And it seemed like they were getting stronger Because they knew just how to attack And for awhile, she was happy She didn’t want drugs or anything She liked being who she was And wasn’t prepared for what was coming 10th grade started out smoothly happy and stress-free until the monsters decided to strike and snapped the girl out of her dream and there they were again those ugly and beautiful things pills, and alcohol, and cigarettes bottles and bottles of things she couldn’t take no for an answer and started it all over again her parents are still clueless as the monsters celebrated their win. Now you can see her That not so little girl Slumping into school with her clothes Covering all her fresh new scars Waiting in the bathroom For that person to bring her the gift A handfull more of pills, and anything she can get Yes that once so delicate girl gave into the monsters power And its sad to say That to this day Those parents can never save her.
