Growing Up Young

If I'm not strong.
Who will be?
If I don't keep them from crumbling.
Will they fall?
Is it up to me to keep them alive?
Will I be the one who decides to keep them on life support?
Am I the one who decides they'll live or die.
Why can't I live my childhood?
If I don't feed them they'll starve?
I never knew I can affect lives of others.

I kinda go tired of being an adult, having to take care of my sibling and my aunts and uncle. Well I don't have to take care of my parents anymore, cause their in jail.
