I wish that I could fly away
And not feel any pain
I wish that I could take your hand
And feel all of my gain
I wish that I could stop these fights
That constantly barrage me
I wish that I could say "I love you"
And not remember what was said.

I wish that we could stop these words
That make me feel so bad
I wish that we could go back to the
Love that we once had
I wish that when others said,
   "That's such a nice family"
They could see the real us underneath
And understand why I'm so sad.

We all have family problems, but family is always gonna be family.  I do hope that you and your family do correct your differences.  Hope things do wrok out fine.  Thanks for sharing and keep your head up.

Very well written and expressed. I hope that things work out on the family front, 'tis never a happy thing when there is a schism there.

Beautiful poetry here!  Such a hearfelt portrayal of your life.  Your final stanza is, frankly, quite well done.  Great closing, and great use of meter.

The sad thing about this poem is that there are many families that have admirers when in reality they should have a crowd of mourners following them...

"If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh"

It sounds like a street angel, house devil situation.
I hope that things improve for you. Living this way isn't too good so I know how it is. Pretty front, smile for the cameras and go on about your life like nothing is wrong. *sigh*

Thanks for the read.
