Why?

Why is it always me?
I am not perfect
As much as you are
So why are you like this?

You do know that
This is my responsibility
As much as this is yours
So why are you so narrowheaded?

I can't understand
How you can always argue first
Even in matters
That should be of outmost importance

Is this how you'll always be?
You can't even accept
That someone younger than you
May have more knowledge in this world

You won't even try to understand
Or listen to what I say
Saying that it's a sign
Of a disrespectful behavior

Why do you have to use
Your role as the older one
As something more of a king
Acting all so mighty

Can't you give me
At least an ounce
Of the respect
You want to have

It's as if you want to live for yourself
It's as if I'm at fault
Of being born to this world
Giving you no choice

I didn't know that
To be a child is such a burden
I always do my best
But it's my wrongdoings you notice

Is it that hard?
To actually pay attention
Not on what I do
But to me as a whole

I am your blood you know
And this isn't how it's always been
Way back in the beginning
Families used to be one

I'm already tired
And you've always been
Pushing me
To just end it

Can you imagine it?
You're the reason
The very reason why I'm suffering
And all you do is to ignore

I'm tired, so tired
Of always suppressing
What I really feel
And what I want to do

Tears that are almost there
Just stopped short, barely hanging
Waiting for the time
When I can't hold it anymore

Are you waiting?
For me to just let go
And let it all burst
Until I'm all gone?

Why? I ask you, why?
Why are you like this?
Why are you so STUPID?
Why...
