What did I do To deserve your hate? I mean your my mom For gods sake. When I get hit It hurts When I get slapped It stings. You call me ***** ***** **** When all I try to do Is please you. You make me feel worthless You've made me wanna die. You've made me make my skin Bruised Or bleed. You're words are like fire Branded into my brain. When I'm alone I hear you. But then it's ok Because you would buy? A new toy A new outfit. You would say "im sorry" And say you love me. But the next day Start again. Until my psyche is destroyed And my brain is confused. Until inside I'm dead. I see myself as sub human I've had a noose around my neck So close to stepping off. So close to ending it all. Why do you hate me? A child you adopted. A child you abused. That grew into this broken woman you see before you.

To My Mother
What did I do To deserve your hate? I mean your my mom For gods sake. When I get hit It hurts When I get slapped It stings. You call me ***** ***** **** When all I try to do Is please you.
