If I had said something to you would you have even heard my voice we share blood not exactly but soon we will be miles apart I wished we would've changed it I wish we could go back I wish you'd try to get better Cause you made mom's heart go black She cries all night I could care less She misses you I wish I saw you as a mess You are broken She's torn She's your second choice You make her laugh when you're around but little do you know you're dragging her down to be brutally honest, I wish you would go but that would mean talking to shows If I were to tell her all that I know I'll reassure you, you'd have no place to call home And wouldn't that be fair You never liked to share You were lazy and never showed that you care I won't tell you, the things that I know but what would that do? No one would hope The scotch tape I hold And the glue that I carry Will keep mom together, until I get married Then I will know the struggles you feel Because we are one and the same We stem from the same wheel
This is about my Step-dad and I would like to note, I'm sure he's a great person, but this is something I feel I had to write eventually, and he's not doing his part to heal. It's not his fault for how he is, it's because of his mental disorders. And I guess this poem takes it's roots in the fear that I and he are one and the same in the head. and I don't want to go through life, tearing families apart like he does, because I've never seen a healthy relationship, I guess this is from the panic of 'what if I'm just as bad and I won't know how a healthy relationship looks' ok rant over sorry
