Clockwork Of Innocence

Words never spoken
About any situation
Too damn afraid to speak
Can't get a simple response

A flared temper
Broken furniture
Patience worn thin
Only if you knew

Love was just a word with nothing felt
In these times that one heard it spoken
From day one 'til you learn
Or it was beaten into you
No matter, you learn

Everything relearned for a new life
After the death of childhood
No time to adjust

Drunken fights and rages
Of these cruel beatings
Misused mother of three
Kneeling down on her knees
Progressing away
From an expression of the soul

Hidden writings of an abused child
Untouched words breed a scar
A diary of an innocent mind
Decipher these words
Mixed paraphrase catastrophe

This meaning mismatched
Feeling of rejection
A world held together
By no moral regrets

Re-healing already healed words
Wanting an inner peace
Can't understand this injustice
Of a small child's release

All that you know
Do only as you're told
Growing up an abused child
Loveless soul
