Caged

This is a really old poem I stumbled across on my comp. I wrote when I was a frustrated teenager...trying to be all rebelious n stuff...its a little childish but in the interest of preserving old memories...here it is:

"Turn down the volume! Don’t talk on the phone!"
"Don’t answer back! How dare you moan!”
"Stop chatting on the net, where is your book?"
"You are so maner-less! Don’t give me that look!"

Those are just some taunts I hear...
Each day each night, as shadows draw near...
What is my fault? Where did I go wrong?...
These are some questions, whose answer’s I long...

"You're at it again! When will u learn!"
"You better start being disciplined! Wait for your turn!"
"You're spoiled! You're useless! You will cause us shame!"
"Keep up what your doing and spoil our name!"

I sit in solace, with a storm in my heart...
Wishing life would end, before its start...
I am caged, and trapped in a web of the past...
My minutes of glory barely last...

"What do you do so late at night? Watching porn on the net?"
"You can’t look after yourself, and you ask for a pet!"
"Don't go on texting on your colour mobile!"
"You pathetic girl! Don’t give me that smile!"

I want to break free; I want to cry, to run away!
But I'm their only support, for them I must stay...
He will never understand me; my lifestyle and friends...
For he hasn’t moved on with the worlds changing trends....

"Go to sleep now! Why are you awake!"
"Don’t listen to music, its noise you make!"
"Don’t bother to ask, my answer is no!"
"Can’t you see I love you, all this care that I show?"

He claims to love me, he claims to care
Why can’t he let me be? Does he have to snare...
My happiness and wishes all the time?
I’m so upset I’m running out of rhyme.

"I am your father, treat me with respect!"
"You live by my rules, how dare you forget!"
"Why aren’t you perfect like you used to be!"
"You must dance to my tunes and obey me!"

I don’t like to fight, it hurts me too
But my life’s a prison, with a shitty view
I want to see the world, I want to grow
But you wont ever let me, coz' ur "concerned" I know

"You cant go for the movie, don’t even ask"
"Sit at home and read for in knowledge you'll bask"
"There is nothing on tv don’t bother watching it"
"You must wake up early and stop throwing a fit!"

At times I hate you at times I cant
Why can’t you let me have what I want?
I know my limits and priorities too
The fault isn’t in me, the fault is in you!

"Why cant you be like x, y or z?"
"You can have fun, but when I am dead!"
"You will not drive, you can’t come home late!"
"You're messing our lives, you're playing with fate!"

I agree I’m an only and that’s why you worry
But I’m older now, I can .....To be continued
