Why can't you love me and accept me for who I am?

I always try my hardest; I do the best I can.

Can't you see how sad I've been?

The way you treated me must have been a sin.

For a long time, I've tried to make you proud.

But instead of encouraging words, I get put down.

Stop trying to live my life for me.

I'm not a kid anymore, damn it, just let me be.

You don't like my friends, boyfriend, or anything I do.

Tell me, what the hell did I ever do to you?

You dated a jerk, who disrespected me.

You always took his side, and turnd against me.

M grandma and Grandpa 

They have welcomed me with open arms;

They treat me with respect, and they love me for me.

No matter what, I'm here for them, and they're here for me.

Now that I'm happy in this new life of mine, do you even care?
