for better or worse,
your mother will call you.
back from the cliffs
and sticky blackberry picking adventures
and finding silly shapes in the clouds.
your mother will call you
when you’re off to college,
to busy to pick up and
she just wants to tell you she loves you.
one day, her soothing voice
won’t always be there.

depression is the friend
that doesn't call you
to tell you they are coming over

depression is the friend
that tells you to have another drink
when you can barely stand

I never meant to hurt you

But here you are hurting me on purpose
