I’m tired of this, you’re tied to me.
Blood bound forever, and it haunts me.
Traits embedded inside of me,
Can’t escape it, it’s meant to be.
I’ll grow old and look just like you,
I can’t run from it, I’m just like you.
Anger and fury entwined together,
It’s almost not my own story
When I’m living in your name.
It’s not my mind, emotions or DNA,
It’s not even my face or my own name.
Everything I own comes straight from you,
I can’t change anything about it,
Only try to distance myself from it all.
I’m tied to you and i’m tired of it,
I can’t stop what will come eventually.
I dream of cutting the string,
But something inside is stopping me.

The relationship here is unclear it mother, father, sister or brother even grandparents it could be but the relationship seems to be an issue. We can not change our biology so I understand the issue with heredity, genes and DNA. Well written
A sense of unhappiness within the family and family traights they wish they didnt have and could be removed from, but they can't because they are related, nicely expressed and written
