Why Don'T You

I think about my mom evry night
i wish me and her didn't have to fight
i love her so much she doesn't even know
she tells me i am retarded and slow
i miss my mom everyday
i love you lesa is what i dream she would say
but instead she calls me a bunch of names
and tells me that me and my foster parents are lames
i don't understand why she hates me so
or why it is so easy to let me go
but if hating me makes her feel better
then i will stop writing her these stupid letters.
