I Am My Parents
I have my mothers ears and her trust issues and
I have my dads nose and his lack of consistency
So I apologize that my thoughts are scrambled and my feelings are mixed
& I apologize that I let those skeletons in my closet collaborate with those of my parents and allowed the cold rattling of their bones to be a sign
& most importantly I'm sorry that I'm confused and that I can never say that I want you with the certainty you desire
I have my dads nose and his lack of consistency

This is so cool! Such honesty here. We are the product of environments that shape us...
