The Letter To My Family

I don't need your forgiveness
I don't need anything else from you
All I wanted was your acceptance
But maybe you just killed that too

So here, a final note from me
So that you can finally understand
Maybe this will finally help you see
And it will also help break our physical stand

I'll confess my entire life in this letter
I'm not exactly what you thought cause I'm gay
And with just saying that, I'm feeling better
But don't leave just yet. There's more to say

All the smiles and laughs I shared
I wasn't happy, but really mad
And so I was protrayed as weak and scared
But the thoughts in my head were pure evil and bad

Also, you should know that everything you hate
Is exactly everything I'm growing up to be
I just figured that maybe it was my fate
So, you should have just let me be me

I guess this is my way of saying good-bye
Well, it's more of a harsh good riddence
Now you know I have not one big lie
And I hope this letter kills you in an instance

And maybe you should know you caused me so much pain and shame
Now I don't have to worry about you telling me that I should share
And now, with hopeful wishes, may you burn in Hell's flame
Because believe me, I really really REALLY don't care

Wrote this right after getting into a fight with my father.

There is a dragon of frost, who's life is as cold as his breath...

    Man, listen, this is a good write and all but you need to realize that you're almost done living in your current household--you've held on this long man, there's not much more you have to deal with--just hold in there

    Skinner, I SWEAR if you make plans to go through with this, I WILL find a way to stop you! this is your senior year, and after this, you can move out and find a place of your own. you've survived through 17 years of this, what's a few more months gonna do? and think of all the people you'd be hurting and letting down. think about how Tony would feel having his best friend gone. think about how I would feel knowing you were thinking this and didn't do enough to stop you. man, I feel like I'm about to start crying.you can't do this skinner, you can't. please, please, just stick it out until graduation, then you can get out of there as fast as you can. you might not even have to wait until graduation, you can just wait til March when you turn 18. yeah, I'm starting to cry now...please don't do this skinner, PLEASE. because I'll end up feeling like it's my fault because I knew about it, but I didn't do enough to talk you out of it...please skinner, just think about all your friends who love you that you'd be leaving behind.

    I can relate to this really well because I see myself in the same circumstances.
