.*.*.*.
One day she stopped feeding me
I was 4
She was pregnant
Something so simple as eggs
But I
NEVER
fed myself first
I served her
Because I
loved
her
One day she threw plates at me
I came to see why she was crying
I was 6
She was bleeding
I wrapped her hands
Because I
loved
her
One day she punched my mouth
I asked why dad hadn't come home
I was 10
She was pale
I brought her a blanket
Because I
loved
her
One day I cried in anger
Because I knew she never cared
I was 17
She was dead
I became numb
Because I didn't know why
I still
love
her
It's easy to hurt someone that looks like you
Especially when you hate yourself
I still love you mom
