pain

by cusp of prophecy - Not entered

I wonder why i bother talking to you
I wonder why i constantly strive to make you happy
For every truth I tell, for every year I grow older
You just push me back down
Every inch of happiness that I gain, you strip it away with only a word
Why don't you just let me f*cking have my life? why don't you just live your own?
Why don't you leave me the f*ck alone, why don't you just get out of my life
the answers to theses questions will never come, just like i will never be who you want
guess i will just have to sit back and reel in my unhappiness.  
Cry myself to sleep wondering if I will ever get out from underneath your grasp
wondering when the hell its my turn to smile
wondering if my tears will dry up
i have failed you, guess that's not news to you is it.
i have tried hard to just beg you to love me for me
never once will youjust let me f*cking do what I want
how old do i have to be for you to let go, let go of me
let go of my life and give it to me?
when do i get to be me?
should i just stop telling you everything, well most things
should i just start to lie and sneak around
sometimes i feel thats the only thing i can do in order to live my life
pretty sad when i feel this bad about something
raveging my spirit with every word you whisper
every time my ears twinge, i swear its you cursing my name
damning me for not being the person you want
ashamed because i do things that i want to do
pissed because you never understand me, but then again i will never understand you...

Reason for writing:

    this is what my mother makes me feel like...21 yr old about to graduate from college in a few months and my mom treats me like I am 12...i don't get it.
