Mom, I'm tired on another level

Dad, I've had enough of your words. . So, so cruel

Mom, I'm trying so hard to stay content

Dad, when I look at you - I just wanna vent

Mom, I'm doing everything I can

Dad, you make sure I'm not fine when I finally am

Mom, I've noticed you're losing it

Dad, don't touch me, I'd rather you hit

Mom, I really wanna let go

Dad, I thought I was safe but you're really a blow

Mom, I hope one day, I can give you everything you deserve

Dad, apologize, or in jail you shall serve

....

Context: "can we talk about the guilt you get when a toxic parent has been on a good streak but the hurt inner child inside you stops you from letting your guard down and you still are so distant from them"
