Parents
You are the reason
for any unhappiness
in my life.
You are also the reason
that I am alive
in the first place,
and the reason
that I have a place
to sleep
and meal everyday to eat.
You gave me life,
you sustain this life
but do not harvest this life
when you suppress my growth
and restrain me in my coming to me.
I have a free mind,
it stemmed from you
and I will find myself
even if I must break my ties
to stability
I will die
if need be
in trying not to be
what you would have.
How
do you wish to continue?
I will come to me,
it is up to you
whether I come to you
