Sad Poetry

Parental Interference

I have no one to turn to,
I am all alone.
I burst into tears
when I hear the telephone.

For I know who it is,
and what they want to say.
I don't want to hear it,
but I cannot run away.

What am I to do
when you draw the last line?
What am I to do,
when the choices are not mine?

I know it will be hard
when we separate,
I guess it would be harder
for us to hold this weight.

Why can't we just be happy,
and be left alone?
I guess it is my fault
for I should have known.

I should've known it wouldn't last,
and where it would end.
Me with a broken heart,
which I know take time to mend.

It's not the end of the world,
but that's what you are to me.
You are my world,
if you didn't already see.

I am a little girl,
so I do not know what's best.
But I know one thing for sure
it should not be up to all the rest.
