Why are you crying mommy?

Why are your lips turned down like that.
Was it something I did wrong that made daddy get mad.
I promise I will tidy my room every day
and pick up all those toys, will that make it better?
Here mommy! let me hug you, grandma hugs me when i'm sad,
she says a hug mends everyone, grandma is always right.
Mommy wheres that pretty ring you said daddy gave you to wear forever?
Did you lose it huh? is that why your sad?
I can make you one from my shoelace and paint it gold.
Will that make you smile mommy?
Shall I bring you tissue to wipe your tears away?
Because you told me that tears swept away in a tissue
are gone forever right?
Remember when daddy had that drink from that bottle and it made him
change into a monster?
He beat me with that stick and it hurt.
You told me he thought it was a feather and you kissed me better and
dried my tears remember?
Can I kiss you better now mommy?
I think daddy must have drank the nasty stuff from that bottle again.
He sure turned into a monster again didnt he.
Im glad you threw that paint all over him and made him sleep it off.
When he wakes up he will say sorry again wont he, just like he always
does.
I dont like those silver bracelets mom
that the policeman says you have to wear.
He looks real mean and he told me grandma will
take care of me from now on.
But I want you mommy please dont go with him.
Can they take you to jail because you were playing with all that red
paint and made it spill all over daddy?
Just wait, when he wakes up he will make it all better again.
Grandma says I gotta go now , please tell her I can stay?
Mommy! Mommy where are they taking you and why doesnt daddy wake up!
MOMMY!!!!
