My parents


Hey my dear parents,

i'm your kid,

i'm the one you keep hurting,

the one that keeps believing,

the one that keeps dreaming,

 

my dear parents,

i'm at a state of depression,

did you know you put me here,

no matter what,

I keep on opening my heart up,

 

My hearts open,

please stop destroying it,

your cracking and breaking it,

how much can heart take,

my heart keeps staying open,

 

where's the good in people,

why does love and trust hurt,

why aren't you supportive,

why do you talk so negatively  about me,

my parents why don't you love me,

 

hey it's your kid here,

oneday i'll get out of here,

have a bunch of kids,

i'll give them the world,

i'll never hurt them
