Letter to my parents
Why do you think i can't handle it on my own?
Why do you think i can't handle it alone?
Why do you treat me like a little kid?
Why don't you let me grow up, at least a bit?
When will you see,
Who is the real me?
When will you learn,
That it is money that i have to earn?
When will you recognize,
That if i want to do that i'll have to be wise,
In the world called society?
When will you see that the one you'll have to let go is my brother and me?
When will you see,
That the one who will always be there isn't me?
When will you learn,
That respect is a thing that you have to earn?
When will you be teached,
That it is maturity i have reached,
And that you shouldn't handle me like a little child anymore,
Because that is making me sore.
When will you finnaly see,
That one day you will have to let go of me?

| Mooi gedichtje Ben.. uit de 'oude' doos zie ik... Maar hoe dan ook... ik hoop dat ze het ooit eens doorhebben.. als je eindelijk daar wegbent.. en ze zich gaan afvragen hoe het met je gaat.. en ze dan lik op stuk krijgen.. dat het ze dan aan 't denken zal zetten.. Sterkte ermee joh.. Greetz, Rob |
