For Her
Mother......
Im sorry for the wrongs i've done against you
Though you cant prove just what that is
I'm sorry for not being the child you wanted
Though i have tried
I'm sorry for taking away the life you so desired
Though it was no fault of my own
Im sorry you are ashamed to call me blood
As i am ashamed to call you mine
Im sorry for the tears i've shed to your embarrassment
Those I wish i could hide
Im sorry that i was your obligation
When i should've been your priority
Im sorry for not being perfect
Like the sister you seem to worship
Im sorry for ever being born
If only i could've turnt back the hands of time to my own undoing
Im sorry you cant understand me
For i wish not to understand you
Im sorry for begging pleading screaming for affection
Knowing all i would get was your rejection
Im sorry you want me to be something im not
Something i woulndn't change for any one
I know know that you'll never accept me as i am
I know that i will never change for you
I know there is no place for me in your home much less your heart
For me to have stayed and continued
this sick twisted game
To see how much of a masochist i could be to myself
to see the pure sadistic pleasure i could derive from bleeding you dry
well now the game has ended
and im not sorry to say
this is goodbye
I know we have always been worlds apart
