Array ( [sid] => 55213 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Let Me Go... [time] => 2004-07-07 19:32:05 [hometext] => Written to my family....i feel as tho if I did one selfish thing instead of thinking of them their whole world would collapse. I can't stand all this responsibility on my shoulders anymore...they need to let me go :( [bodytext] =>


Feeling the need to break free
Free from these chains that tie me
Down to the earth so I can’t move
Gotta cut loose – got so much to prove!

Always playing the parts others cast aside
Never get to play my own part, no matter how I’ve tried
Just need to be let go so I can find my way
Need to find my own life without these hassles everyday

Stop calling me mother, when you know I am not
If there was a time you didn’t rely on me I’ve forgot
And please, please stop calling me your best friend
I’ll be there for you but am I the only one on whom you can depend?

Please let me go and stand on your own feet
If you’re gonna act crazy you gotta take the heat
My job in this world is not to sweep up after you
There’s so much more out there I have yet to do

Just set me free and take a step back
Letting me go won’t colour your world black
You’d probably find all the colours of the rainbow
All our lives could be improved….if you'd just let me go

Well, I'm odd man out I guess. Your poem read well enough. I just thought it was harsh.
"Stop calling me mother" - thats hard. We all have days we'd like to escape, but not totally.
I just can't understand this. To me this poem shows a hate for this child. I hope your family never finds this poem. You may get your wish. You may end up being odd man out.

Goodluck and God be with you & your family,
J~
