A mistake
Something that you do on accident
Something that wasn't meant to be done
Something that can be forgiven
Right?
Or is a mistake more than that?
Can you be forgiven?
Or will you be shunned?
Will your family be broken
And their trust in you shattered?
Mom said it wasn't your fault
Dad said anyone could have done it
But you saw
You saw in their eyes what they were feeling
You saw what they saw in you
You saw their shame
Their mistrust
Their disappointment
You tried to get them to understand
Or, at least, you tried to convince yourself that's what you were doing
But you didn't care
Frankly, they were just your parents
And even if you did try to get them to understand
They wouldn't bother with you
The simple thought of you never crossed their minds
The real you
You were the by-product of their highschool years
The thief of their college years
You were a mistake
And you were happy
Because while you had so many mistakes
This time it was their fault
This time
You were their mistake
