Elucidating Questions

I can’t quite stand on my own two feet

Can’t quite get to independent adult

Something always goes wrong

And I make so many bad choices

It seems like I’m always wobbling a big on my feet and my legs give way

But what I want to say

Is that I’m grateful that I have parents whose hands are still waiting to catch me if I fall

I thought it was shameful but really

But really

It’s just true that we all fall down sometimes

I just wish I could reverse the polarity of the issue

I wish I could gain control and understand well enough to stop making stupid choices

I’m not rich enough to make stupid choices

Well I’m not rich

And I think I appreciate the help that I get but it never feels like it

I always feel like I haven’t expressed my gratitude enough

How could I possibly do it?

It’s such a complicated experience

But I appreciate that I haven’t completely fallen down

That there are hands to hold me up as I lose my footing

I just want to be able to offer the same help to others
