.Beautiful Disaster.

It seems to me all throughout my life
Home hasn't been a sanctuary
Nor will it ever be close to a haven

70% of the time, its chaos and mayhem
Shouting, slamming doors, physical violence kinda mayhem
Those that you'll see in some Ch 8 shows or Crimewatch
Pure Family Disarray

And with my lil bro having entered his turbulent yrs of adolescence
Things are looking far worse than I've imagined
I fear but most times I'm upset at my bro's words and reactions
Is he the same funny lil guy i used to know?

My dad's action have always been disagreeable,
But for him to stoop to a similar level as him was beyond me
Surely 2 bickering ego-filled heads will never settle an issue??

And thats the precise problem.

I live in a house with dramatic characters
Each filled with self-pride issues
No one listens much to anyone, and for years
Dad's been using fear and violence to intimidate everyone to his ways
Yet now we're pass those tactics, he still uses them to failing effectiveness

Mum rants and screams soemtimes now that my elder bro has left home
And she loses all emotional control and sensibility

Everyone's hanging on to this thin thread of sanity here, me included
How does one keep up with this facade of peace any longer?
Or choose to deny its existence?
Will anyone ever care to change or compromise to another?

I just hope no matter what happens,
My family will remain intact.
Like broken pieces of glasses within an unbreakable frame.
