Poetry of Love and Pain

Mother Part 2

It's your son and I'm back
To tell you to take a seat, sit back relax, and let your heart collapse
To these words I'm about to speak to you about your addiction
It caused me way too much pain for me to sit here and mention
You used to treat me like shit
You used to make me feel useless
I used to wear all this makeup
Just to hide all the bruises
But now you're off of the drugs
You put yourself into rehab
And now I'm proud of the fact that you're back in the family and off of that crap
Now you're level headed, settled into a life that's worth living
Now I need to mention that you have become my inspiration for a sensational life
For more mentionable nights
So keep it up
Keep off that stuff
You've had enough
Been through enough
Put me through too much
Almost lost our love
But now I need you to know
That no matter where I am to go
I have way more love for you now that I'm ready to show
I hope you will absorb all these words I am about to speak to you
With all heart I swear to you
Mother, I finally forgive you
