The blows to my body were never there
But you never smiled, you never cared
I sat alone in my room, in the dark,
Waiting to be tucked in
The only one that was there, was my only friend
My teddy bear
The whipping of the belt never came
But when I saw you, you were the same
There was no laughs, no jokes, no play
The hugs and kisses were never there
The I love yous, were so ever rare
I may not have physical marks to show you never cared
But the scars inside is more than one should have to bare
