Oh sweetheart
I Love You and
We may be miles apart,
But our heart's will never part.

Mama, this is your black sheep
In this life that you have given me
There is sadness and misery
I can hear you whispering prayers for me
But I can also see you very clearly
Deeply regretting giving birth to me

Mother, this is your wayward baby
I’m sorry that you can’t understand me
The state of my hair or the clothes I wear
The fact that I’m never really there
“Always living life without care” you said
But I swear I’m better off elsewhere

Birth giver, this is your son of a gun
Your boyfriend has always made me feel
Unwelcome and emotionally numb
I left home so you don’t have to sleep alone
But since then my heart has turned to stone
And my mommy issues are starting to show

I lay my head
To rest in bed
And wonder
In my little head
Would I be prettier dead?

egg shells
like bells
in a silent world

eyes shut tight

beyond the window
birds have eggs
     in their open
life

yet egg shells must break
risk must take

for life's
sake

I have never been the victim of domestic abuse. I have however seen my nearest and dearest suffer.
