Dear Mommy

Mommy I love you, Why don’t you love me. Mommy I'm sorry, Sorry that in me it's him you see. Mommy I love you, Why can't you kiss me goodnight. Mommy I hate it, Hate that you can't stand me in your sight. Mommy I love you, Why do you beat me black and blue. Mommy I'm sorry, Sorry for what daddy did to you. Mommy I love you, Why is it from me you wish to escape. Mommy I'm sorry, Sorry I am your child of rape. Mommy I love you, You are all I have and all I need. Mommy I'm scared, Scared how at eased you are when I bleed. Mommy I love you, Why did you take my life with no mercy or love. Mommy I forgive you, And now I will love and watch over you from above.
