Array ( [sid] => 20807 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => enough to kill [time] => 2003-07-22 22:05:00 [hometext] => well this is written towards my beeping parents... [bodytext] => You convinced me that I was the problem,
And for years I have tried,
Tried to kill myself to set things right.
But now I see that I wasn’t born with hate,
I was to be molded in you image,
And now I see what a dreadful image that is.
After years of hating you,
I have forgotten how to love,
And worse, I am afraid to be loved.
I push people out of my life
-Because of you-
I tried not to let it happen,
But I grew more like you each day.
Removing myself from the world I once loved,
-But you haven’t completely corrupted me yet,
They say there’s hope, I can change.
And you could too… if you tried,
But you don’t see the problem,
And so to help myself,
I'm taking one thing from you.
You never gave to me,
And this I need, you owe this to me.
-I'm taking your life-
I'm not sure how yet, but I will kill you.
You taught me to hate,
I owe this murderous rage to you,
So thank you for making me despise you enough to kill.

i loved this. i too was terrified of turning out like my dad, but after i moved out, i saw that my mom was just a lying ***** who made him seem like a monster. your poem was dripping with an emotion that everyone needs to accept and embrace. homicidal rage. i hope that things work out best for you, whether you have to destroy them, or ignore them.
