Here I am, Mom!

You told me I was fat,
have you seen my tears?
You ripped down my self-esteem,
do you know how much you hurt me?
You told me no guy would want me,
Mom, no guy wants you YOU'RE A CHEATER!
You looked at me jealousy,
yet I believe every word you said.
Until, I met this wonderful friend.
She told me I was brilliant, and beautiful.
She has been there for me.
Mom, she is everything you not and so am I.
And that bugs you because I am nicer than you,
prettier than you.
You're jealous.
Mom, You may have hurt my self-esteem,
but I know one things for sure.
I will never be you.
Mom you made me feel ugly,
you made me feel worthless.
Now, I walk around with my head up high.
because I figured out my worth.
I looked at myself for hours,
and figured it out.
I don't have fat, you do.
I am not ugly, you are.
I don't need to lose 20lbs, you do.
It disgusts you the way guys always look at me.
I see it in your eyes, the way you turn your head.
Now mom, that weak girl is dead.
Say hello to the stronger and more loving than you.
Mom, you can everything about someone else,
but you never say there is anything wrong with you.
And people say I have issues.

    Wow.. That's beautiful! I'm glad you have friends great enough to help you like that.. Who cares what someone looks like? You're beautiful to me, and I love you!!! Lol, if your mom says you're like that, she isn't doing her job.. She shouldn't do that to you.. No one should get you down like that.. You expressed your feelings very well in this one.. It's amazing.. *hugs*
