i am not my mothers daughter or my fathers daughter.

im so distant from my parents.
it's hard to imagine what goes on in their minds.

we have a large family. and every time i try to get in the conversation (granted, it is a topic that i finally care about that they are finally discussing) and i get cut off by someone louder. this leaves me to just sit there, and smile, and look pretty. never do they want to talk about veganism, foreign films, music, or social issues. it's always who's making how much where and gossiping about their son coming home trashed the other night or how their daughter
might be pregnant ("but we're a hundred percent positive she's not"). for the record, she was. my family does not trust each other. my family does not demonstrate what i think lo
ve is. my family does not see me for who i am. and the sad thing is they never will.

will they ever see how much i went through growing up,
will they ever realize how much that had an effect on everything i am today.
well i love myself.
