My mother oh my mother.
Why do you harm me so?
I've loved you with all I had.
Because to me,
you are all that I will ever have.

Like a parasite and its host.

My mother oh my mother.
Why do you hurt me so?
I've done all i could, I've given to you all that I am.
I assumed maybe I'd earn your love.

Like a firefly to a burning blaze,
I was.

Mother, oh mother,
Why do I find warmth from another rather than you?

Why do I weep.
Oh so beautifully,
oh so unrestrained.
Towards my companion, rather than you?

The you, who holds the same identity as me.
The you, who holds the same structure as me.
The you, who holds the same features as me.

The you,
Who birthed me.

Mother, oh mother.
My sweet, endearing, and loving mother.


Why oh why,

Do you harm me so?

- Mom
