They're at it again
Clock strikes ten, eleven
Another night
Another hungry day.
This time there's shouting
And crying.
They're at it again
Not involved
Yet pained.
Silent yet scarred.
I'm crumbling from inside
Trying to block out the sounds
Unable to take a stand
Confused, tired and helpless.
They're at it again.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
