You
Caught a flight
Jaundiced manger
Held by strangers
I
Stayed behind
Unable to follow
Feeling hollow
You
Shined with love
Radiating joy
Captivating boy
I
Worked long hours
Never with his trust
I was not enough
You
Tender heart
Gave your mom a ring
Were you hungering?
I
Told "favorites"
asked you to be tough
We did weekend stuff
You
Showing worth
Always making grades
Standing on a stage
I
Earned esteem
In traveling more
Lost track of my core
You
Sought online
Admiring voices
Offered fun choices
I
Left my work
Could finally be home
but "Leave me alone"
You
Fly solo
Try psychedelics
Parents are relics
I
"Control all"
"Could never be nice"
"Gave more bad advice"
You
Break my heart
Demand Agency
Driving on empty
We
Naming boundaries
Balance found
Wellness bound
