Ready To Go

For so long,
I resisted the urge to do it
But now after 14 years of discomfort
And very careful thinking
I know I’m ready

I love you,
But I know your nature
If I asked you, you would say no
So I’m gonna do it without you’re knowing
But please don’t be mad when you find out
I know you’ll be disappointed and angry
But please, just try to understand

I’m not a bad person
I don’t lie to you,
I don’t argue that much with you
I try to help out with the work so you won’t have to do so much
So please, just let me get away with this for once

I’m doing this after 14 years of being banned from it,
I don’t want to do things behind your back
Or question your authority
But if I continue to live with this,
I’ll live in discomfort, depression and
It will forever keep me mad at you guys

You guys did so much for me
You raised me up with so much love; you put more than enough clothes on my back and gave me food
You gave me an education, you gave me an ipod/playstation and every other electronic device that exists and a place to call home sweet home
I know that’s cause you’re my parents
But still, I appreciate every single thing you did for me

So after I do this,
I just want you to understand
Not to inflict your religious beliefs on me
Or force your own personnel beliefs on me
I am my own person- I am the way I are
You can only suggest and encourage
But please do not force, it doesn’t help you or me
It just helps to create distance between us
