Whose to Blame ?

I feel like I do most of the work
but I guess that's me
I understand she struggles
That's something he doesn't see

Ever get the feeling to leave?
But I just can't grasp it
I love home to much
I just hate my surroundings

I guess it's more than hate...
it's just pure pain
Growing up takes to long
And my age is what I blame

When I'm older I'll be free
I won't see her in shame
Maybe it's wrong...
But she's the one to blame

I love my mom with all my heart
And not everyday is bad
But my thoughts just gather up
It makes everyday seem like crap.

I'm sure if they'll see this they'll feel horrible
Just hurting and writing this must seem terrible


The author's comments:
seeing my mom and step dad argue makes me feel small, like I can't do anything. She's always saying she's sick but it's just excuses. I have my dad to talk to but he doesn't always know the full story. Home is home... even if fighting happens day by day.
