Dear Mommy and Daddy...

by Jennifer Fox or Jackson   Sep 18, 2005


Dear mommy and daddy...
I know I been bad
but it isn't my fought
that you got me this mad.

I'm eighteen years old
and you won't let me go.
I feel like I'm locked up in hell
this I want you to know.

Soon enough I will be gone
far away from this place you call our home
never will I return
so you leave me alone.

I'm sick of the rules
it's my senior year
but you won't let me out
soon enough I'll be out of here.

Why can't I get a job
so I can save up for a car?
Why won't you make it easy?
I won't go very far.

I feel mentally abused
from the things you said over the years.
You said I will never amount to anything
that line always brings me to tears.

You make me feel worthless
and empty inside.
I have trouble trusting people
because this life is what I hide.

I don't know how to love
the way love is supposed to be.
Love is what I lack
what the hell is wrong with me.

I remember my "ex" boyfriend
and the way he had made me feel.
I wonder if that was love
and even if that was real.

I still don't know
and because of you I'm a little confused
I been robbed of a childhood
and been mentally abused.

Everyday I feel depressed
because everyday is the same.
There is no excitement in my life
which is totally lame.

To much time I spend thinking
and staring at the walls.
I have nothing better to do
I'm not even aloud to get phone calls.

I have no privacy
so I hide away in my room.
I wonder if anyone even knows I exist
if not, I know I'm doomed.
