Suffering

by Autumn Rain - Aquarius

You think you understand
And you want answers on demand
While you keep on lying
Please stop your trying
I think it's plain to see
You really don't understand me
Thanks for caring at least
But you can't kill this beast
My demons are my task
I must conquer them myself, so don't ask
For now, please let me be
So I can set myself free
You no longer control my emotions
Nor do you control my other devotions
If I cry, just let me go
Perhaps someday, the truth you'll know
I am a lost soul with internal conflicts
This takes more than just a "quick fix"
So please, my parents, just have trust
I haven't the strength to do as I must
But in time I will be okay
Just not now, later someday
You make me suffer more and more
Please let me close our door.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this for my parents, telling them to leave me alone for now. The sequal is "Please Understand".
