My mother beat up her son Fifteen years younger than iam Done, He stood aside sobbing in distaste Looking at the heartless woman Whom I believed he hated I had to turn away my eyes I remember for minutes But so soon were no cries I looked back, Lucky I was to see his final tears Drop on my mother's laps The beating The pain The hate All he had forgotten I thought my brother and I Were the same Same mother Same hearts Same clay And tried to forget about her Her who bruised my heart And threw it in the dumpsite To rot I try to close my eyes But still her voice I hear I wish I were my mother's two year old son Who forgets the bitter pain And renew this weary heart

Weary
My mother beat up her son Fifteen years younger than iam Done, He stood aside sobbing in distaste Looking at the heartless woman Whom I believed he hated I had to turn away my eyes I remember for minutes But so soon were no cries I looked back, Lucky I was to see his final tears Drop on my mother's laps The beating The pain The hate All he had forgotten I thought my brother and I Were the same Same mother Same hearts Same clay And tried to forget about her Her who bruised my heart And threw it in the dumpsite To rot I try to close my eyes But still her voice I hear I wish I were my mother's two year old son Who forgets the bitter pain And renew this weary heart
