Stained genes

(I may have posted this before but I've tweaked it from the last time I believe please enjoy)

I'm still recovering from that drama,

That you've ed down from your mama

Wish we could sit down, and you'd  just hear

All my memories and tears

All the pain that you have caused

Wish it would make you hesitate or pause

But it won't so..

I'm still sitting dealing with the dirty laundry

From these stained genes you have piled upon me

All these ripped and tattered clothes

Represent what you have sown.

And I will stitch myself together

try to make it all fit better.

picking out my own wardrobe

From that tattered heavy load

I know you say you did your best

But it all feels like you jest

When I'm still dealing with this mess

from my wounds you won't address

Telling me life just ain't fair

It's like you never really cared

You didn't so..

I'm still dealing with the dirty laundry

From these stained genes you have piled upon me

All these ripped and tattered clothes

Represent what you have sown

And I will stitch myself together

try to make it all fit better.

picking out my wardrobe

From that tattered heavy load

I will don my new old  clothes,

Sowing ever stitch to feel whole.

Putting on my best fit

And forget what you once meant.

you've left my mind in tatters,

All my thoughts are all scattered,

still I love you, if that even matters

It doesn't so..

I'm dealing with this dirty laundry.

The old stained genes  you've piled upon me,

All these ripped and tattered clothes.

Represent what you have sown

And I will stitch myself together.

try to make it all fit better.

picking out my own wardrobe,

From that tattered heavy load.
