Is it just me? by Simranraj Kahlon

June 14, 2023

Two houses, two homes

From monday to sunday i’m moving from home to home

To be honest, I don’t know which is.. home.

Don’t trust him said my mum

Don’t go to her said my dad

Don’t trust them said Simmi (me)

Getting questioned by solicitors

My wants are not heard.

I’m my parents property now.

Am I an object to own?

I live of their wants

Wondering when I can make my own.

 

What had I done to deserve this?

Was I the reason for this?

Why am I in this?

Am I alone?
