Family Ties

I feel angry

angry at everyone

I hate feeling angry

I've been trying

to sort it out

I used to trust

I used to believe

when someone said

they cared

I had no reason

to think it wasn't true

If they called me friend

I didn't question

I feel alone now

somehow

alone in a world

full of people

people who can

and might betray me

at the drop of a hat

I mean why wouldn't they

they have no ties to me

no blood relation

it's not like they're

my mother or my grandparents

or anything, right?
