For my parents

[Beautiful Nightmare]

There is a place you will never find

Locked up tight inside my mind.

I used to care about what you used to say

But all of that changed today.

 

I’ve put up with you both for fifteen years

And all through that time I’ve shed so many tears.

You had so many chances with me, but there gone away

I cant stay in this house for one more day.

 

You don’t see it the way I see

You talk about me, but you don’t even know me.

I don’t care what you say

I don’t need parents anyway.

 

I have lived without them for years

And grown a better bong with my peers.

My parents die over and over in my dreams

And id be a lot happier if they were dead it seems.

 

For the first few years of my life you had me under a spell

Now I just wish you both would die and burn in hell.

 

When I was a little girl mommy, you used to call me fat

I never said anything just looked at you as I sat.

But not everyone knew of this verbal abuse

As every morning you smiled and poured my juice.

And dad, you above all I wish was dead

You have put me down so much I think I’m broken in my head.

I hate you, I swear I do

And once o turn sixteen I’m out of here and we are through.

I had some trying times with my own parents Arwen but while I struggled to find my own space I never had this experience myself, but my sister did.

Parents are humanbeings, and humanbeings are flawed.

They have made mistakes with you. Do you feel they brought you into this world only to make you miserable? I hope not. Your words are so angry. I can only caution you to be careful what you wish for. It might come true. Hope things look better tomorrow. Love and hate have been decribed as two halfs of the same coin.

The true opposite of love is not hate, it's nothing. No feelings at all.

parents are human, and humans are flawed, this is true.

some people, however, should never BE parents. Having lived with one who hated me passionately and made my every breathing moment undying hell, i can honestly say that sometimes you *are* better off without your parents.

 

*hugs* to Arwen for the courage to speak up

and *hugs* to Regen for caring enough to provide the voice of caution

One would think they'd would get it right fifth time round hun. Apparently some people are too stupid to learn from their mistakes. Not to worry, it ain't the rest of your life. Take comfort that they'll be a very small part of your life years from now
