Half of me wants to stay at my mom's
Half wants to go to my dad's
feeling like a stretched rubber band
I'm gonna have to break eventually
but it won't be drastic
I know that
I'm too strong and "arrogant"
To fall hard

I stay at my Mom's because of
Friends
Step-family
fear of what it's gonna be like at my dad's
Dumb thought of possibly
getting back together with my ex-girlfriend
My Church

But I wanna go because
New friends
find out what it's like to have siblings
get to be with my family
Spend quality time with my dad
without him I wouldn't be half the man I am now
I don't know what to do
I feel like I'm getting Ripped in Two [comments] => 3 [counter] => 153 [topic] => 43 [informant] => MrPerfect [notes] => Edited for spelling as requested. - Moderator_16 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
