I am a Bother
Location
Do you see them?
Those people right behind us?
Their happiness seems to stem,
Like a young girl in a fancy dress.
They pal around,
Without a care in the world.
And as they clown,
My mind whirls.
How could they act,
With such little concern?
While as I look back,
I could feel my heart churn.
Why should they get,
The perfect lives,
When my heart won't admit;
The thought of them in my life is like having hives.
Though their lives seem great,
My life doesn’t compare.
My family is more of a freight.
I can feel their loathing stares.
Not even my father,
The one who is supposed to love me,
Can pretend that I'm not a bother.
I'm the Mediterranean sea,
And they are the creatures trying to avoid pollution.
