My Mother

I figured if I got the \" good grades\" ,

The ones that you wanted,

You would finally love me , mom ,

But I was wrong, and it hurt alot to be honest.

 

Mother, am I that unlovable ?

Is there something wrong with me?

It feels like to impress you is just impossible,

You say that you love me, but do you, really?

 

Mother, you had me but I never had you,

I was a child,

Yet , even now , I still don\'t know what it\'s like to feel loved,

Please, mom , please, I tried,

Is what you do really just?

 

You made me want to kill myself,

And trust me, I tried to,

Couldn\'t you tell that I really needed help?

I couldn\'t even tell it to you.

When this happened, I was thirteen,

Just thirteen,

All you did then and all you do now is yell and scream.

 

It\'s fine, mom ,

My bed can hug me instead,

My pillow doesn\'t mind wiping my tears,

I\'ll be fine, mom , 

I just wish I knew what it\'s like to have a mother who loves you in a way you feel loved.
