My Mother's Obsessions (My Father's Illusions)

By TheOtherYou

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Tearing down the walls, you only wish you were I'm not listening and neither is she I can't believe you don't see the futility in your actions Your feeble attempt at manipulating emotions has been a failure My mother's obsessions coincide with my father's illusions And my own confessions contribute to your delusion You'll never change her and she can't wait to leave I've had this feeling for so long, now confirmed Proof is all i need to shove your dirt in your face negatively Pathetic attempts at connecting these silent and anti-social bodies My mother's obsessions coincide with my father's illusions Because of my conclusion i am sick with emotion Take this black confession Take these sentimental pieces Dig through each grain of sand carefully Until you find the moment you’re searching for My mother's obsessions coincide with my father's illusions And my own regression ultimately is your confusion Written March 17th, 2002 © on Mar 16 2002 03:29 PM PST, daniel (6) joseph (6) scarpa (6)   20 • 0 • 10
