The Legacy
Though I don’t fully understand
I am proud of you;
Though you feel burdened by my expectations;
Despise my authority as having no worth or foundation,
Defy my demands on you as being irrelevant to your world –
Other worldly –
You are so like me.
You, my child are my legacy;
A future for this family;
In my image shaking
A product of my making;
In you I wanted to create
A better version than of late.
