Just In Your Way
A letter just for you
Admit it, I know you don’t care
But please just this once
Just bare my message
I long for what we used to be
When I was at the top of the world
But you just let me crumble all the way down
You gave me away
Without a replacement
Never did you want me
Neither did you need me
Maybe that’s why you didn’t want someone to take my place
You only listen till the effect, effects you
I know you gave up
As well as I
Everything you witness
Everything you hear
Everything you desire
Must be a duplicate of your thoughts
But all that you see is only what you want
What you hear is what you prefer
You take out the words and letters that you resent
We may be blood
But you're not family
“Fix yourself”
You can’t take out many words from that, now can you?
Not like you’ll listen anyways
I’m sure you’ll find a way anyways
A way to bewilder me
But like you said
You made it clear
I'm in the wrong place
Just in your way

The Poem is about relationships with the hard parts of family. We are related to family but that doesn't mean that they are family. Family is someone thats there for you whenever you need them and put you first. Not all family mebers do this, would you still consider them to be true family?
