Poem 7: Time

Frustration. Anger. Resentment. Anguish. 

Angst. Pain. Torture. Fear. Loss. 
How long until I finally get what I want?
How long until I finally finish school?
When will I ever learn to drive? Or get
A job? Get married? 
Have kids? 
A life of my own without the pressures of 
Parental figures 
Clawing up my back every minute of every day?
How long until they really TALK to each other 
Instead of through me?
I want out of this town, but no one knows how I feel.
