About My Mother
She forced me to pray for a god
that never answered my prayers
When I told her that I wish to die,
she told me to recite Al-Ikhlāṣ
In her own eyes,
I was a sinner who didn’t worship
the same imaginary friend as hers
An imaginary friend that let her
steal my innocence instead of saving me
from her cruel hands and piercing eyes
How can I worship a god that
didn’t listen to my desperate cries
when I was abused,
abandoned, and bruised
Well, that was painful to write.
