I wish you could love me
At least just for a little bit
That's all I ask from you
Love
But you never gave it
You never will
Mother why are you always gone
You always come back late
With strange men in your room
They tried to touch me
So I hid in the bathroom
Why didn't you come?
Mother
You're always drinking
I see empty bottles of beer
Some are broken
I see white powder on the table
What is it?
You barely speak to me Mother
Do you give me love?
Do you give me laughter?
Do you give me smiles?
Do you give me hugs?
Not Mother
Mother do you not see what you do to me?
When you come home late
Drunk
You cut my wrists saying
'Now you know what I feel'
That's all you ever say to me
The only words you will ever say
Mother why don't care?
Am I not good enough?
Like those men
Do you love me?
Do you care for me?
Not mother
Mother I'm alone
In the bathroom filled with blood
I can hear your shouts and cries
Do you care?
No
It's just my imagination
You don't care
Not mother
I can see the darkness and warmth
I'm going now
Goodbye Mother
