Mom

The thought of you makes me feel choked Speaking your name is like swallowing glass If you were in my arms you would be blood soaked The foul memories of you never pass You did nothing good for me Made me feel like i was rotting inside I tore out my eyes cause you were all i could see I wanted to kill you, so i tried You filled my mind with corrupt thoughts Forced me to say lies like "love you lots" But my hate for you, you can never comprehend I want to watch your pain never end Why do you keep me here tormenting me Cant you see what you did to me Why do you act like you did nothing to make my heart sore I hate you so what am i here for You took away everything i ever cared for I will hate you in my heart to the very core I want to spill your guts on the floor Because every day i hate you more and more!

We do not get to choose our parents.. But we are blessed with the ability. to choose how we wish to live our lives. Look for those choices . Do good for others and you will do good for yourself. That is the infallible way to happiness.

Boy that hate is gonna kill you body and soul. I know what it is like to have bad parents. My parents did things that should have them in jail for life to my siblings and other people. I ended up being raised by my aunt and uncle and came to forgive my parents. Christ will forgive you and help you to forgive them. Look me up on facebook and I will freind you and we can talk through facebook messages if you want, Sincerly Bobb

Reminds me a bit of "Daddy" by the late Sylvia Plath. Check your spelling of the word in the first line of the third verse. That word is correctly spelled "corrupt".
