Words can be cruel
It hurts feelings
It can manipulate

It can make someone do insane things

My mother's words sting like venom
It makes me feel small
It makes me feel little

Her words leave venom in my blood
It makes me feel tired and useless

Her words drown me in doubt and pain

It makes me feel unheard, when she says that my words are all excuses

It makes me feel miserable

I hate that I can't hate her and her words|
I despise the I can't hate her
I hate myself for it

No matter what she says
and how much it hurts

I still can't hate her 
Like I wish I could

I don't what to hate her
But her words are cruel

I had to hear them my whole life
and I still can't get used to them

They still hurt
They make me cry
They make me sob
They make me despise
They make me doubt
They make me angry

And now they make me feel exhausted
Like I will never be good enough
for it

Her words are sometimes sweet
But all I can taste is sour
I don't believe them
I don't want a taste
I fear that if I taste those words
They will just be bitter

Maybe I truly do hate her

Cruel
but maybe it's true

I could never tell her I hate her
I could never hurt her that much
I could never see her cry

Those words are to cruel
for her and I

But I fear she wouldn't care to say it to me
She wouldn't care to say she hates me 

she'd do it in a blink of an eye

She hasn't said them yet
But I fear they will come
And when they do

I will truly be done
