[hometext] => This poem was inspired by the song
[bodytext] => You were trying to help me. You taught me things that I needed to know in the "real world". You were strict and heartless towards me whenever a failure came up. You told me that I was worthless, a nothing. You wanted me to be just like you. You wanted me to join the military, to forget art. You wanted me to succeed in everything you did. When I ran that night...I told you...I'm not like you. For two years of living on my own...I have found myself. Yes I could be like you...but I'm not. I am me for once, with no restrictions. I can finally live my life without your harrassment. I am not like you...I have succeeded.
