long gone (save me from this hell)

moonburned chest.

my chest is barren with betrayal and delirium

he left my belongings in trash bags
with me on the side of the street

as i cried to my mother
who refused to believe
i could leave a narcissistic woman abuser
for she had the dignity to

screaming at her over the phone
why wouldn't you help me?
why are you here?
why do you want me to lose years of my life
just like you've done?
you're supposed to be my mom

for once
i didn't bother to ponder on worse case scenarios
