Mothers Word

Mother
for 18 years you lied while staring into my eyes you swear are my fathers
For 18 years you get my name wrong
and called me your brothers name
or some nickname you got from your older sister

You promise we will do this
you broke it countless times
I don't remember you actually stick toing your promises to me

Instead of standing there with your back towards me
playing a video game
telling me your busy
Instead, Get up, and do what you promised

Because of you
I have no hope for anything
cause I know what will happen
Pain coursing through my heart
dissapointment cause I know it will never happen
I earn for you
I try my hardest
Hell, I'm bleeding Mother
Can't you see it

I remember 2 events where you actually comforted me
When a dog died
and
when I got attacked by bees
Your a really awesome mother
but your promises makes me crazy

When I make a promise,
I make sure, its not just words
Its a cut near my heart
I will never let it heal
until it has been fofilled.
Mother
Thank you
for making me stronger.
