Everyone has them
Or wants them
But do they even
Know what that means?
Doubtful
For me
Parents mean pain
Mental pain
Depression
And suicidal thoughts
And yet do they care
Not at all
What about your happiness?
Don't care at all
What about your mental health
Nope
They just want you to be good
At what they want
Sports
Math
Science
You name it
It's expected
And yet happiness
They couldn't care less
If you are wanting to quit something
Heaven forbid you actually want to
That you actually want to be happy
What even is happy?
I know I haven't felt that
In so long
Honestly what does that even feel like?
Sure I'm not abused
Physically
But mentally is whole other thing
Parents are honestly are insane
And inhumane
