You want me to change but I wont,
So your just going to have to deal with it.

I'm sorry I'm not perfect,
And even if I could be I wouldn't want to.

You say you want me out so you don't have to look at me,
Soon I will be gone and never come back.

It's you who causes me to drink and smoke,
Because that's the only way to escape the pain.

By telling me you want to hurt me physically,
You make me never want to be at home.

You always make fun of me and put me down,
So I know how you truely feel.

Nothing I ever do is good enough,
Plus you say you'll never be able to trust me.

SO tell me one thing mom,
Why did you even have me!

my thoughts exactly, good write.

Liefhe alle ten spijte van duivel... A tes souhaits... A tes amours... Qu ils restent. J'ai t'adore. Je t'aime.

hey! nobody makes you drink and smoke 'cept yourself!! I should know.. I'm a drinker and smoker.. and another thing.. believe it or not, your mother loves you and is most likely only doing and saying the things she says and does because she is worried.. thats all.. you know.. you probably give your mom more stress than she gives you.

I don't know you and you obviously don't know me but you have no right to tell me why I do something.The reason I drink and smoke is because I'm stressed out and depressed because of the way my mom treats me and she doesn't know I do so you can't blame this on me.So next time you think you should analize
someone elses situation you shouldn't because you don't know the whole situaion.

i lovd the emotion in this and i think you did a good job expressing yourself.  i don't think there's any reason to yell about anything.  i think that eagle scorpion brings up a valid point about people controlling there own actions but that's just his opinion and you can take it or leave it.  keep posting your work.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.
