I Owe You Nothing

I should have been able to rely on you

To open up to you

To talk about darkness festering inside me

To release the demons dwelling in the shadows

But I could not

Because all you ever did

Was make yourself the victim

Of the disease that was killing me

You told me to keep it all in

Because you didn’t want to know

You didn’t want the hassle and the stress

Of having a troubled child

You act like I owe you

For bringing me into this world

But all you’ve ever done

Is push me to the brink of leaving
