Poems

Thankyou

You said I would thank you one day.

I would, but not like you thought.

Thanks for the pain, the memories I have

You made me realize, I didn't deserve what I got

You called it blackmail

When I felt like I would die

And you plugged your ears

So you wouldn't hear me cry

So thanks for the hate

That you made me feel

Towards you and your family

It seems so surreal

That you could sit there

Not listen to my pleas

When I sat there and cried

Down on my knees

Thanks for teaching me

That what I need is love

And that you are my family

But you aren't from above

I thought we were a miracle

It seemed to be at first

But you just brushed me off

When I was at my worst

So I thank you with this poem

For making me want to show

That I'm gonna live my best life

And your lies will have to go

You never loved me

It was all a pretty lie

And now your little angel

Knows what it's like to lie

Don't worry Mom! I'm fine! 

But really I am not

Because I know the 19th line 

Is the lie that I was taught
