Whose to blame?
My mother, father, the world, or myself?
but let’s face it,
I can’t blame anyone
For all my misery,
that currently overlooks me.
I didn’t say no
if I did a different life would have occupied me.
I would have been a woman who inhales air, consumes oxygen and has blood flow
and maybe even life itself
I know feel like a human without arteries
I am dead
from the choices they forced upon me
I have bought myself pure misery
I should have said NO
am i just alive for my children?
or
am i alive to search for water and air?
Should I blame the past or the future
just tell me who to blame…
