I don't know why I still cry over you
That just gives you more power
Just gives you that chance to call
That chance to change my mind
I don't know why I still love you
Because you proved you don't love me
Because you have taken every opportunity to beat and batter my broken heart
Because you have lied and cheated
Because you have manipulated and abused every piece of me I thought I kept hidden
Every piece of me that I saw worthy
of love
of keeping near and dear so you couldn't mess it up
But you still reached through my tender chest
You still took your clawed hands and carefully ripped open my torso
You still took everything I had
And ruined it.
How dare you
You dare to take pieces of me that are not yours to look at much less
TOUCH
You dare say "I love you"
When you broke that promise the second you lied
The second you decided you couldn't even come clean to your own child
How dare you say "I miss you"
When you falsified that claim the second you told me to never hang up on you like that again
The second you made excuses
The second you couldn't be an adult
The second you couldn't take responsibility
How dare you call yourself my mom
You are not my mom
You are my biological mother
But you will never be my mom
Ever
Again
