Max
My name is Max
I am but three
my eyes are swollen
I cannot see
I can not be loved
for I am punished
by cigarette burns
I must do right
I cant do wrong
or else Im locked up
all day long
when I awake
Im all alone
the house is dark
my folks arent home
Im really just
an expensive joke
no more no less
then speed or coke
be quiet now!
I hear a car
my dad is back
from Charlie's Bar
I hear him curse
my name he calls
I squeeze myself
against the wall
on my bed
its too late
his face is twisted
into hate
I feel the pain
again and again
Oh dear God
please let it end
My name is Max
I am but three
last night my father murdered me......
