I wish I had a family. But instead I have relatives Blood relatives That I want to stay relatively far away from Our clashing results in crashing Yelling screaming madness Angry words and bitter thoughts Hatred boils beneath our Loving, warm smiles You can barely feel it sometimes The tension in the room And other times that tension Is thicker than the air None of us really care None of us really want to be here Trapped in this house together We pretend we're not there We pretend were anywhere But where we are at the moment
