Face Down, Leave Now Poem by Isaak DeMaio

'Do you feel like a man
when you push her around?
Do you feel better now,
as she falls to the ground? '

This drunken life that you live,
it needs to come to a halt,
days are getting harder to survive,
none of this will ever be my fault.

You need to leave right now,
I know that you don't care,
not one more day will I ever allow,
these reckless painted actions that I wear.

'Mother, can't you just get rid of him, '
an un-confident child declares,
it's not just a sudden whim,
it's that every night he is drunk, she is scared.

'Well I'll tell you my friend,
one day this world's going to end
as your lies crumble down,
a new life she has found.'
