The House
What do you do
in this house that you hate?
Ignore the problems,
try to clean the slate?
Well the marks are deep
some can’t be erased.
No matter how hard you try,
you won’t see eye to eye.
Try to get past it
still the scars won’t fade.
Just what do you do
in this house full of hate.
Lost all respect.
Just about nothing left.
Just what do you do
in this house that you hate?
Write who you knew
in this house full of hate
Craft the words
used to commemorate.
Like a lucid dream,
use some chalk
on that slate.
Write to escape
the house that you hate.
