Can't have an opinion,
Or question her decision,
Forget about our ideals,
She doesnt want to hear,
Unless it's about the way she feels,
Fall in line or leave,
No compromise,
Stern face as ever,
Watching tears fall from my eyes,
Maybe life was too tough on her,
Maybe that's why shes like it,
Doesn't give a **** about your opinion,
Listening but never hearing,
Quiet only so she can speak,
The conversations over as soon as she feels complete,
Nothing in common,
Different worlds,
Only thing bonding us is blood,
I try to connect,
It's clear I'm misunderstood,
How am I supposed to move forward.
Never a good word to say about me,
Though that's not what's scary,
The fact she thinks she knows me,
Knows my life,
She doesn't,
I tell her nothing,
I learned a long time ago,
Theres only so much you can say to someone that doesn't see you,
So after a while,
I just stopped trying,
Change is something she doesn't care for,
So I take my place,
Putting one knee on the floor.
