Why

All the questions in my head, Making me mad. You treated me as the enemy ever since, I married into your family. All I want was, your approval to accept me as I am, But the moment I step into your house I was damned. Not know what I do is right or wrong, Because you already decided I do not belong. I was so used to your rejections, Without any affections. It broke my spirit down, And many nights in my tears I will drown. You darned make sure I got the message how you feel, Just in case I thought it was not real. Punishing me, by ignoring my children, When they seek your favor, In return you gave them bad behavior. No one of you come to our rescue, When your son sold my house and left us on the street, Where I have to struggle to land on my feet. I have so many questions in my head, That make me furious and you oblivious. I try to understand why people like you, Can be so heartless and careless. You played the judge and jury, When it comes to your sons’ fury, You believed all his lies, Even when I almost died. I stop wondering why, What you done to me, because, I am now free. Free from you all, no beatings of my head against a wall. I hope and pray that you will realized one day what you have done. You will live with regrets and hate, and that will be your fate.
