A Lot to Live Down to

Wealthy, successful parents.
A CEO in a leather office chair.
A gold pin for his tie.
A house with more bright rooms than dark corners.

Fancy clothes to hide your fears.
Money at your fingertips and in your mind.

You’ve got a lot to live up to.

Crazy, sociopathic father.
A sister swinging from a rope.
A bag over his head.
A man in empty hospital room.

Scars to wear forever.
Death at my fingertips and in my mind.

I’ve got a lot to live down to.

And who’s more likely to succeed?
