Dysfunctional family

You call yourself a family

but live so unhappily

mom smiles in people’s face but 

when she’s home

puts people in their place

Dad stays quiet , don’t know what to say

depressed with the life he live

every single fucking day

The sister , from my dad side

ive only seen once or twice

never thrice 

not 3 times 

way to complicated for an adult to put into place 

shit just turned 18 couldn’t called and wish it happily?

 

well this is the family 

that calls themselves a family but don’t  live

happily
