To the black smoke
I came to you with a half-open heart
That you poured yourself into
I let you in with my half-open arms
I opened them up a little just for you
My parents visited again --
In you, with pain and not much more
I feel so many more rocks in my heart --
My family and now you, I know!
---
I walked away from you with a half-closed heart
I walked away with pain and more
Every part that was hurt and cemented
I walked away with more, no few
Every part of my father you supposedly hated
I saw again and again in you
---
Now, I’m left to fill my half-closed heart
In hopes that I never turn into you
Now I’m left to mend myself
Because I never wanted to be neither of you
*Daddy, Mommy...
You *******, I’m finally through.
