say?

say?

A Poem by cara

cuz i 
i didn't think i would get here
you made it hard to have faith
but im
good
no im
good
and there's nothing i should say
nothing that i would
to you
cuz i
should pull some more strings here
take the fear as an opportunity
and less of something that makes me want to leave
i know that im better off without you
and i know that you'll pay for all you do
and i know how to make money
how dumb was i to think i had nothing
what degree do i need
i was raised to know what everyone wants
you can't fit what i have on a CV
cuz i
need to stop apologizing
worrying that ill hurt your feelings
worrying that you're thoughts are about me
worrying that you'll make me want to leave
i'll drop out after this summer i know it
i'll stop having to make these expenses
i'll gain back all that weight that i wanted
i'll become another potsmoker
i'll show you that im my mother's daughter
and my father will be nowhere in sight
