Original Poems

Why must they be so forgiving? (The thoughts and wonders of a teen)

I've done some stupid things in my life,

I've done countless things wrong!

I cause my family strife,

I'm not worthy of the name song.

I deserve to be disowned,

yet they don't tell me, be gone,

Instead I'm told,

"You may have been wrong,

but we'll give you another chance."

Why must they be so forging?

I wish they weren't,

I'm not deserving!

I ought to be burnt!

Alive or dead,

they'll forgive me,

they won't ever want my head!

It stings like a bee!

I don't deserve their love,

I don't deserve to be alive!

I'm not an innocent dove,

I should be stuck in a hive!

I'm just so dumb!

And yet they try to be so patient,

Even when I cry myself numb!

Is this really part of the roll of a parent?
