I can’t understand this pain I have.
Thoughts of you run tattered through my head.
I think of your leaving
And you’re not even gone.
I want to cry,
Even shout, NO
Scream out;
“Why can’t you just be the same,” or
“Why can’t I change?”
I wear the same name
But does that mean I’ll be like you?
Will I die like you?
I wish I could have only known you.
I want to be free of the burden.
I want to release you,
And hold you all at once.
You’re my mother, I love you.
You’re my pain, I hate you.
To separate the two
That is what I plead to do
How does one I love
Make seeing my blood seem so great.
You’re my mother,
I love you
You’re my pain,
I have you.
