You Can’t



You can’t choose your family

They get to choose neither,

They have no say in you,

Or you in them either,

The boss made the rules,

He can’t exactly break them,

Your family is as is,

You shouldn’t really blame them,

I know you do,

Things happen, possibly blamelessly,

Things happen in spite of themselves,

Things happen famously

For a reason,

Sometimes without thought,

We do the things

We think we ought.

And as quickly as they came,

The family slowly fades away,

In the distance,

It will soon be your day
