No One Does A Thing

About chills, abuse…comment it…
Locked in the bathroom
With a bucket full of Clorox bleach
Gasping for air I can barely breathe
Prying shell come to open that door
I’m have way close to death

My arm is burning
I feel my hair sench
My arm is burning
And there’s nothing I can do
But watch it.
I can’t pull away, she won’t let go
I just have to take
And pry dad comes home

I’m so weak I can barely move
Oh how I hope today I get food
I haven’t eaten in a week
She likes to "play starve me"

The neighbors hear me scream
They now my pain
But they do nothing
And for that I hate them all
Child abuse is not aloud in the U.S.
But mother abuses me everyday
And no one does a thing

We hear about it
But never see
It happens every day
No one does a thing
Child abuse is illegal
In all 50 states!
