You Left Everyone

We knew life wasn’t fair

It was your mantra

To explain away anything that

You couldn’t explain at all

 

We supposed you knew

What you were doing

After all, we’re kids

You’re adults

 

We were dependent

On you

As you laughed

All the way to the bank

 

Stealing futures

To make your presents

Charging up a debt

That you carefully avoid

 

Don’t worry

Life’s not fair

So we pick up the bill

And clean up the mess

 

You left everyone
