Mommy Dearest
Few families are perfect... But some are more toxic and damaging than others. May each new generation learn from the mistakes of the past and forge a better way.

Mommy dearest,
Where were you?
When you sent
Me away to
Boarding school?
To have your
Own life,
Without your kids;
No fun with us -
Disadvantages.
Mommy dearest,
Why did you
Kick me out?
When I was
Still at school,
Trying to
Graduate?
To hurt me
And disown me,
Put me down;
Abandonment
Issues,
With deepest roots
Sown.
Mommy dearest,
Why did you
Hate me so?
Blamed me
For everything,
And the
Scars
Still show.
