Don’t you realize,

you’re yelling and punishment and disappointment

won’t change anything.

I’m trying my best.

I’m doing everything I can

and I Refuse to feel any

sadness or shame or whatever.

Because!

Because if I do, I’ll just kill myself,

don’t you realize this?

Are you that blind?

Seriously?

I’m getting sick of this.

I’m tired of trying.

I’m tired of dealing with her (and so is everyone else, for that matter).

I’m tired of you trying to make her happy

          because she doesn’t care enough about you

                   to even help you--

          because she doesn’t care enough about me

                   to tell me what to do, like a real parent.

I’m tired, goddamn it!

I’m tired…

I’m tired of my heart breaking,

it’s never going to stop--

until my heart breaks apart…

I just…

I just do more harm than help, it seems,

so can I just leave?

I don’t need nor want

anything from you.

No pride, no patience, no trust

can stop the damage you’re-- she’s causing.

You wanna do something?

Huh? Well.

Just get me some boxes.
