You gave me life
But you also take it away.
I choke in your love and affection
Unable to live how I want
when I want.
There is no understanding between us
And maybe I'm the Ungreatful One
But that is who I am.
Take it or leave it.
But leave me be.
Leave me to live my life
Let me learn my way
Discover things on my own
Stop trying to drown me
I want to breathe.
I am myself
Perhaps a product of my environment.
But one separate entity
Misunderstood
But I will not change.
Not for you.
Not for them.
Only for me.
