Abuse Runs In Families
As I lay here wondering,
Why you did all those horrible things to me,
I slowly begin to realize,
That these things tend to run in family's,
I'm sorry that your parents did this to you.
That still does not make this right,
So please face your own demons,
Without forcing them to become mine.
Blood is thicker than water,
Yes that is true,
As is hate a stronger emotion,
Than love that I thought I had been learning from you.
I have found that trusting people is all too hard,
I blame that much on all of you,
Because the people I thought I could trust,
When it came to my innocence and safety,
Turned out to be deceit, horror, and corruption.
So thanks for opening my eyes,
To how crooked the world can be,
Just know this in solace,
That I will not continue this corrupt legacy.
