Dear Mother

You were supposed to love me, Unconditionally. Called the hotline, I'll be fine. Wait for the "someday", Surely the sun will shine. I just want a new life. Way away from yours, mother. Why do you hate me anyways? Did you forget who created me? I didn't mean to be this way, The way I am today, You forced me to be. I tried your visions on me, You know, you saw it too. I saw, you weren't happy Or proud ; just made me Feel like a fool. Mother, I wanted to live, you know. To honour the life you gave me, But you took it many times too. I promise, I love the sound That makes when the word "Mother" is said ; I just, I can't see you this way. I promise I've tried to, Way more times than I'd ever admit. More times than I should have. I'm sorry, mother, forgive me. I really tried to forgive you, But I've failed, you failed me. I mothered me better than you.
