Mother,
Haven`t you noticed I`m crying in the dark?
From the pain of the marks you`ve given me,
all the times you said you loved me seem as if
you wanted to say you hated me.
I tried so hard to be your perfect girl,
but it wasn`t enough.
Maybe I`m just not tough enough,
to take on the beatings and abuse without
questioning.
Darkness began entering my soul,
voices began mentioning how weak I was,
and why?
They became my only friend,
and no matter how much I tried to pretend,
nothing was wrong the memories and scars remained.
As if to say, I wasn`t loved.
As if to say, there`s no light above.
and why?
Mother,
if only you knew what you`ve put me through.
I`m not blaming my illness on you,
but as the saying goes.
\"Like mother, like daughter.\"
I`m just as messed up as you.
