"Mom & Dad."

I don't know who you've expected me to be,
Where you wanted me to go,
Or what you even wanted from me,
I know this isn't it, though.

I sit here all day and pretend I'm okay,
at night, I think of all the things I could've been,
Tomorrow for me is just another day,
And I'm stuck still asking myself, "when?"

I smile at you like I believe you care,
But I know well enough that it isn't true,
I'm sorry for the DNA we share,
And I apologize for all that I've put you through.

If I had the option,
I wouldn't be within these walls,
I would've been put up for adoption,
And I wouldn't be counting every tear that falls.

I know it doesn't matter what I have to say,
I'm still hoping,
That you'll care someday,
But for now, I'm just coping.
