Shoes

What would my mother say?
What could she do?
If she new her daughter felt this way?
Empty in her shoes

I wonder if I tried
If my soul could abide
To become more worthy
Of my parents pride

What would my father say?
What would he do?
If he knew his child felt this way
If I tried to fill his shoes

I'll find my own pride
So they wont have to die
Never having a a child
With the courage to try

This poem is about: 
Me
My family
