mother

Mother,can you hear,

When I cry myself to sleep

When I whimper to my pillow that I'm unworthy of this life?



Mother, can you see,

The pain in my eyes when all you do is scream

When you tell me that I'm never good enough

Can you see the scars on my heart?



Mother, can you feel,

How cold my life has become

Without your support

Can you feel how lonely I am now?



Mother can you help me now

I'm falling faster, and faster

In this world that is so dark

With no one here to pull me back from where I stand

To hold me close, and tell me that they love me

To never let go of my hand.  

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem I wrote to my mother to try and show her what my life has become with all the screaming that goes on in my house. I hope that she will see that I am trying my hardest to finish everything that I have to do. And i hope that she still loves me.
