Message Ignored (STOP TRYING)

When I was born I knew you didn't want me,
that was alright with me.
The day you pushed me down the stairs I bleed for an hour,
I didn't shed a tear.
When Mother told me not to ask why you were never home,
I listened intently and nodded like a good girl.
When Brother hit me in the arm I hit him back,
always trying to impress the uninterested.
The night two boys followed me home wavering a price on my head,
I kicked them to the ground, just like you said.

All I want is for you to notice.

Though I know you won't.

You never will.
