How Could You!

By The Shattered Heart

HOW COULD YOU! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO US? I THOUGHT WE WERE FAMILY! I THOUGHT FAMILY WAS IMPORTANT TO YOU? HOW COULD YOU JUST THROW IT ALL AWAY?!?!?! HOW COULD YOU LOOK US IN THE FACE AFTER WHAT YOU DID? DON'T YOU REALIZE THE PENALTY IS WORSE THAN JUST JAIL TIME YOU STUPID BITCH?!?! YOU FUCKED UP. YOU ROYALL FUCKED UP. WE GAVE YOU A HOME WHEN YOUR HUSBAND DIDN'T WANT YOU. WE SHELTERED YOU AND YOUR DAUGHTER, PUT UP WITH A LOT OF SHIT FROM YOU AND YOUR SPOILED LITTLE SHIT. WE FED YOU, HOUSED YOU, HELPED YOU WHEN NO ONE ELSE WOULD. WE SAVED YOU TIME AND TIME AGAIN. YOU DID YOUR SHARE OF HELPING BUT HOW MUCH OF IT WAS FALSE?

HOW MUCH OF YOUR BULLSHIT WAS A LIE? HOW LONG DID YOU THINK YOU WERE FREE?  HOW LONG DID YOU THINK IT WOULD TAKE BEFORE YOUR TROUBLE CAUGHT UP WITH YOU! YOU LIED TO US, YOU FOOLED US ALL. YOU MADE US BELIEVE YOU WERE FAMILY. YOU AREN'T FAMILY, YOU ARE JSUT LIKE THE REST OF THE CONVICTS THAT ARE SERVING TIME FOR THEIR STUPIDITY. YOU SHOULD BE THERE WITH THEM. SERVING TIME FOR YOU MESS UP. HOW COULD YOU!

Torn up inside
Blackened Heart
Empty Soul
So Many Lies
So Many False Promises
Alone In The World,
To Never Trust again.
Lost In A World Where
Nothing Stays The Same
Change Gets Worse
Never Better.
Torn Up Inside
With Only One To Blame.
YOU!
How Could You Pretend To Care?
How Could You Show Your Face,
Knowing What You Did?!?!
Here Is All I Have To Say,
Goodbye!
Don't Call,
Don't Write,
Don't E-mail.
Just Leave With Your Head Hung In Shame.
Kiss My Ass,
You Are No Longer My Family.

    That's the best thing to do, is to totally erase people like that, for all the pain they cause, they don't deserve to be taken as people any more. Thanks for the nice write. Scholar
