Slip away.

Entry: Last.

"Sorry mum, but I've snapped,
My will has gone astray,
My heart once innocent and loving,
Has decided it's time today ...

[To admit -]
A piece of glass can cut me,
My scared heart may never heal ,
But nothing hurts me anymore, mum,
I'm immune, i cannot feel ...

The past is only a smudge,
Upon a canvas that doesn't exist,
There are no more tears and heart breaks,
And no more cuts upon my wrist ...

No more purging for "glamor", mum,
I don't need to look like that,
I've even stopped the exercising,
Because i am NOT FAT! ...

Now against your will I'm leaving,
And i have a boyfriend to,
I ditched the girls, the "popular" ones,
Because my life is for me, not you ...

So take your empty bottles,
And stagger back to the store,
I can't pretend i am just fine,
Mum, i can't take this anymore ...

So i blame you for the memories,
That have faded throughout my life,
And i hate you for the betrayals,
That caused my family so much strife ...

Slip away, mum.

-------------------------------------
+I hate her just as much. In my previous poem i started this with it meant for my dad, then i realized it was more meant for my mum. It felt good to get this out - it really did+

    It's better to get it out this way, than hurting yourself, you shouldn't pay for something other people do to you!!! I really felt your anger and pain in this one, so well written adn you always have a great flow!!! Great job as always.
