Divorced
June 26, 2011
Don't run, don't hide, don't close your eyes
I can see the truth between your lies.
When you act as a child, my emotions are riled
And a part of our relationship dies.
Each and every time, I fall more intertwined
Into this thing I'd like to call family.
I can't even decipher what's on my own mind,
each of you trying to be more divine.
It's impossible to live this way, torn in two
When half of me is me, and half of me is you.
As parents I'd hope you'll realize, in time,
All I can ever do is try.
