That if I don't live by your every word,
I will find my self on the wrong side of the gun.

You think that I can't handle peer-pressure,
That I have/would do drugs.
Oh how you're so wrong.

I know what's right fro me,
What's in my best interest.
I can find things out for myself.
You need to let me take that first step alone,
If you ever want me to go out on my own.
Please trust me,
I won't bring shame to the family name.

Peer-pressure has nothing on me,
I don't do drugs,
Unless you count adrenaline,
If so, then I'm guilty,
lock me up now.

Mom, Dad,
You need to trust me,
I can do this,
But this time without your guidence.

Believe me when I say,
That I will come to you,
Whenever I am in harms way.

But, until that day comes,
I need to you support me,
To know that you have raised me right.
Can and will you do this for me?
Or will I just remain missunderstood? [comments] => 4 [counter] => 451 [topic] => 43 [informant] => intelectualpoet [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

this poem would make a good song if tweaked a little! It sounds like "Drown" by three days grace

Poetry is a great way to describe how you're feeling. Or just plain writing. That's what I used to get to my parents. It really works.
Take care.
