~Part One~
My Mother Told Me...
"Your sister is missing"
You don't seem at all sad
"The cops are searching"
You look a little glad
"You father is coming home"
I don't really care
"He'll be happy to see you"
He won't notice I'm there
"Where could she have gone?"
Why are you asking me?
"She is such a good girl"
She hasn't been good since we were three
"I need a moment alone"
You mean you need a drink
"I'll call you when supper is ready"
A glass of wine won't help you think
As I Sit Here.....
As I sit here
On your cold empty bed
The last words you spoke
Linger in my head
"Life's too short
So stop playing games"
You lived in a world
Where there is no shame
You told your white lies
People found so easy to believe
You were picture perfect
And could never be deceived
For a time period
I hated you with a passion
With your popularity
And smart sense of fashion
But now I don't understand
Why did you leave?
Did you really mean when you said
You felt like you couldn't breathe?
Where have you gone,
My dear twin sister Darcey?
Can you hear me?!
It's your sister Marcey!
At The Dinner Table....
Mom doesn't look at me
But I stare at her
This can go on all night
If that's what she'd prefer
She hands me a bowl
Without looking me in the eye
If her eyes begin to fall on me
They suddenly and quickly fall
The question is
What the hell did I do wrong?
I'm the trouble maker already
And Darcey hasn't been gone long
I look away wanting so badly
To let out a few screams
I always didn't matter to her
At least that how it seems
I play with my food
And remembered when we talked
Now I'm invisible
And she say's it's my fault
She claim that I have
become someone new
The truth is
She never had a clue
She could never be motherly
Considering she worked to much
She only knows work and wine
Never learned a gentle touch
Now That I'm Alone....
I lay here
On my bed and cry
It's funny how I made them hate me
Without a single try
I was never my parents
Favorite child
A few bad grades
And they label me wild
Dad's coming home after
Three and a half month
He's the one that always
Made me feel like a worthless runt
Appearance is ever thing
Is what he will say
Sometimes I stop and question
Is he married or gay?
But this is what I've been
Stuck with for seventeen years
So I let fall there well
Deserving tears
~Part Two~
My Name is Being Called....
I hear it but
I don't reply
Here in my bed
Is where I wish to die
I hear it again
And this time I speak
The next thing I know
I'm dragging myself to my feet
I trip my way downstairs
Rubbing my tired eyes
I know the voice that woke me
A voice I truly despise
He holds his arms out for me
And I see if he lost his mind
Dad grabs me in his arm
He has been gone for a while but he's not blind
My Father Asked Me....
"How are you?"
A little confused and tired
"Why confused?"
I thought your love for me expired
"That makes no sense. Your my daughter"
I'm sorry but I no longer believe that
"And why is that?"
I don't listen to reason. I listen to facts
"And what are you facts?"
You haven't noticed me in years
"That's not true"
Have you not seen the tears?
"Your my daughter and I love you. Stop being silly"
I'll stop being silly when you stop judging
"I'm not judging"
And your not loving
"This is ridiculous. Where is your mother?"
Gulping the wine
"Not again"
This family's special with its own rare design
Channels on The TV
I flipped through them
Carelessly and quickly
My mind is somewhere far
Where things are done differently
There is no word
To where Darcey might be
After a hour or two
No one will notice me
Cartoons are the
Only company I have
But there still not
Enough to make me laugh
I wonder if they would
Care if I left right now
I'm so sick of being bored
And I crave something loud
I grabbed my wallet
And the keys to my car
I won't say a word to them
I don't need another emotional scar
I drive away not caring
About the speed
This is the type of numbness
That Darcey might need
I Ended Up in The Mall...
It was crowded and
That's just what I need
The sound of people's happiness
Is how I'll feed
I sit on a bench
And watch people go by
I was just fine until
I caught Darcey's boyfriend's eye
I turned away quickly
But Justin coming my way
I put my hands in my head
Admitting today isn't my day
He Sits Next To Me....
"Your Marcey. Darcey's twin sister"
That's pretty obvious
"Sorry. I just never met you"
Yes you have but you only noticed one of us
"Really? I don't recall"
You had just chugged a six pack
"Are you sure about that?"
I know for a fact
"I'm sorry about you sister"
Aren't we all
"It must be hard"
Get to the point. Stop trying to stall
"Where having a party. Do you want to go?"
Your my sisters boyfriend. How sick can you be?
"It's not going to be a date or anything"
Uh...I don't know. I will have to see
"Well, here's my number if you say yes"
Thanks.I will think this over
"No problem. I"ll catch you later"
It's a free country,one party and free night in October
When I Get Home...
It was the same
Nothing had changed
They probably didn't notice my absence
No need to feel ashamed
I sat back in front of the TV
Where I belong
And listened to
The Spongebob theme song
"Where did you go?" dad asked
When he came in
I shook my head
I should have known I could never win
"Be careful ok?" he said
Leaving me alone
Careful never existed
In my little zone
I think my dad
can finally see me
Pretty soon her wont
Be able to set me free
I wish he saw me
When I was younger
His love was my food
And I was dying of hunger
~Part Three~
Later That Night....
I called up Darcey's boyfriend
And told him I was going
He said he'd pick me up
And he sounded kind of knowing
Like he knew I'd come
Because it was an offer I couldn't resist
I might be the rough child
But I hope I don't regret this
I dressed for this party
Like any other occasion
Just because it's a party
That doesn't mean its time for persuasion
I waited for the door bell to ring
And I rushed for the door
With no surprise I saw
Justin's arm around a whore
I shook my head and
Followed them out
I could feel my little
Devil horns starting to spout
Party Time...
Music blasted and
That was all I could hear
I didn't even hesitate
When I grabbed to cans of beer
I gulped them down
Like a natural drunk
Some guys demanded I'd have one more
I did and proved I'm not a punk
By the eight can and a shot
of something I didn't know
I was completely loose
And ready to let go
I danced with several guys
Not caring that they started to touch
My mind wasn't working
Did I have to much?
An hour later
I was drinking a little more
Thank god a couple hands caught me
Before I hit the floor
Justin finally found me
And he frowned
Wasn't this his party?
Wasn't this his crowd?
He dragged me from the party
And into the car
As he drove my head begun to spin
And home seemed pretty far
He carried me to the house
And knocked on the door
When nobody answered
He frowned some more
He reached in my pocket
And pulled out my keys
He open the door and
Set me on the couch a little more pleased
He sat across from me
And I tried to stand
He caught before
I had a chance to land
The room was spinning
And I was completely wasted
The night was over and
It time to replace it
The Hangover....
My head throbbed
And I wanted to hurl
My dad rubbed my back
While my head spun in a swirl
"It's ok," he whispered to me
And I wanted to cry
Now he's being so nice
It all feels like a lie
I threw up in a bucket
And caught my mother's worried stare
I wondered why she was watching me
Or why she is even there
My parents? Finally giving
me their freaking time of day
It's freaking impossible
There's no freaking way
Yet here they are
Looking worried about me
It kind of made me wish
Darcey was here to see
She always said she wished
They'd tried to understand
That I'm a different type of person
And I should be accepted as I am
Where are you Darcey?
Things are finally start to change
I need you right now
And your not within my range
Mom and Her Questions...
"Where did you go?"
I answered honestly, to a party
"How much fun did you have?"
I don't know. You have to ask my friends Corona and Bacardi
"Do you think this is a joke?"
I find it quite funny
"You could have got killed!"
You would have enjoyed the money
"How could you put us through this now?!"
Because now is the perfect time
"What the hell is wrong with you?"
Nothing. I'm perfectly fine
Gentle Dad Says...
"I understand why you went"
Do you really understand it?
"Of course. Its a reaction to your sister"
It's a result of being neglected
"Neglected by who, Marcey?"
You, mom and everyone else
"Is that how you feel?"
Me and Darcey have always been by ourselves
"Is that how you both feel?"
That's how we always feel
"I didn't know that"
We felt like we weren't real
"I'm sorry. I had no idea"
That's exactly how we kept it
"Why did you wait until now?"
Darcey is gone. This problem had to be corrected
"Your mother doesn't know?"
And I doubt she'd hardly care
"Yes she does"
Have you seen that evil stare?
"She's a good woman behind all that work"
Let me know when that good woman awakes
"Why don't we talk to her?"
She's already pissed. Let's not for her sake's
