I prefer the water.

As I stand with my family that's not related by genes,
I smile because it's more perfect than it seems.

I find it far better than where I was expected to be.
Why would I want to sit with loveless blood, who choose to patronize me.

They try to persuade me, but I don't know why they bother,
"Blood runs thicker than water."

But they do not know what they are saying,
for that is not the full quote they are rephrasing,

"The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb"
The phrase of which they are hinting to I presume.

And I agree with them more than ever, I will explain with great mirth,

The quote above means relationships formed by choice are stronger than those formed by birth

And it's not surprising when you say my knowledge is a waste,

or that I am selfish for my sense of taste.

But before our argument turns to combat,

just know that using, "curiosity did kill the cat."

Still needs something it lacks,

Yes, curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought him back."

Get educated before you try to destroy me,

and get over the fact that I hate this family.

I will always prefer the ones that love me and amaze me,

rather than the ones who think they have they over rule me because they "raised me".

Author's Note

really quick one and kinda blah, didn't put in much effort, i was just really upset and needed to right something. I will probably come back and clean and edit it later. sorry for the mess :/

Simply the truth. Are you glad you have writing to pull things outside for a closer look or for purging?

:-)

i am very glad, its hard to find the words sometimes but its a fantastic technique to rid your self of strong emotions and calm down.
