family drama,
mixed up lies,
your hand is tightly
around my throat.you hush me as you
say you swore nothing
in vein.
i find myself drowning
in a sea of your problems
that seems to never stop.a father, a son, a husband
long gone.
you, you've took this chance
to draw me in
and fight using me.everyone uses me
please,
stop.
i ran from this.
i ran from everything.
maybe that's where I learned
that running,
nobody can catch you.but as a daughter, i shouldn't have to be the one
to scream for you.
