Denial City You say it never happened, I made the whole thing up! This family of abuse, Lives in Denial City! Leaving me lost and confused? Inside of my memories, Which you say are delusional! I'm just seeking attention! Any so-called abuse I got, Was a well thought, and planned out, discipline Not a vicious attack! In a firey rage! A lost temper, on someone who should know better Than to hit a child, Because they, the adult, is angry You want me to wipe out my past! Pretend it doesn't matter, I was never battered! Sorry, my mistake... What was I thinking, in revealing the truth! Abuse is to be kept silent, Don't break the chains of habit. Let me do to my child, What was done to me. And we'll all live in make believe, Till someone dies... My heart did, But you won't break my spirit! It happened, it's real I will not fake otherwise. I was abused by him, and him, and him... Now you do it too, Through your lies and accusations. You weren't there, How can you comment? And the glimpses you saw, You turned a blind eye from, To my pain and pleas for help? You ignored me, You condoned it through doing nothing! Just like you want me to, But I aint playing this tune. Your bullying stance, No longer has power over me! I fight back! Break out, raise hell! Be counted, for the silent minority Who can no longer speak. � Elizabeth 6th November 2001
