Mother

I’m the daughter that you didn’t want

I’m the daughter that you never loved

I’m the daughter that doesn’t do shit right

I’m the daughter that you hate

You see what you want to see

You feel how you want to feel

Your words are like sharp needles sticking into my heart

My heart breaks like shattered glass when I hear your words

You are a disgrace

You can’t do anything right

You are not the daughter I wanted

I wish I never had you

You want to hurt me like you are hurting

But I won’t let you hurt me

I won’t let you in my head

Like you did before

I know I’m stronger than that now

You weren’t the mother I wish I had

But I learned a lot from you that I’m glad I had

I learned all good and bad

I learned to stand up for myself

I learned not to be like you

A mother who doesn’t care for her children

A mother who hates the sign of her children

A mother who puts men over her children

A mother who loves that bad attention

I learned not to be like you

A person who lies

A person who steals money from people who need it

A person who doesn’t care

A person who isn’t their

I am better than you

I am caring

I am kind

I am strong

I am so proud of myself

You are the reason I am who I am today

But you are not the reason I am here today

You were never their for me my entire life

I had learn all on my own

I wish things were different

But I’m also glad that it’s not

I am who I am

Because I am not you

I made my own family

A family who cares about me

A family I found all on my own

With no help

A family who loves me for me

I guess I didn’t really need you

Because look at me

I made it

I am who I am today because of me not you

And I am so proud of myself for that
