before 11am/roll credits

my parents
my poor parents
they tried their very best
to shelter me from a world
they believed would take advantage of me
a world
they believed would negatively influence me
denouncing everything they had taught me
but they never realized
that we are our own worst enemy
i wish they would've realized that and taught me
on how to properly deal with such a situation
maybe then i wouldn't be sitting here
contemplating either the gun or the noose
as a way to checkout before 11am
my parents
my poor parents
your daughter was born
with a fucked up brain.
