scene vii mama
mama, i've never known
what love ever was,
for you have never shown it before.
mama, i don't ever blame you
for what you have done to me;
for all the pain i had endured,
all the blood i have spilled
and the childhood i have lost.
mama, you've taught me many things that i'm grateful for
you gave me the bare necessities to get by in this twisted world,
and i have learned enough to
become strong.
although i have never blamed you
and i don't hold a
grudge against you,
i've come to realize the scars
that you have given me.
and some of them
are far from curable.dear mama, these scars
will remain forever
but for the reason that
i am unable to feel pain,
i can't complain.
mama, you were far
from a good person,
mama, you are barely
even a person.i want you to know, mama,
that as you lay there dying,
i never hated you.
the inability to feel
is a gift i'm grateful to
receive from you.but as i have never hated you,
i don't love you either.so goodbye, papa,
it's time for me
to address you as the one
thing you have always hated to be known as,
just as it was for me to be
addressed as a girl
that i never wanted to be.REI —
— JUUZOU SUZUYAauthor's note. Juuzou is one of my favourite characters and he's just a small bean that needs love. anyways, i hope I've done him enough justice tbh. I dont know how Big Mama exactly treated him but i could make a rough estimate. Also, if you haven't read :Re, go read it nOW and the ending will probably make much more sense. and this is the other 1/10 poems that i wrote in school but it's ofc edited
