a conversation with my mother

Sat, 10/23/2021 - 20:42 -- unknow3

Mom” stop eating your fat”

Daughter “but I only weigh 130 pounds” 

‘stop eating all this food you fatty”

‘I only weigh 120 pounds 

“you look amazing”

but I only weigh 105 pounds”

You see I could never be me 

I was never free 

Sh was always in my head 

Her words haunt me like the dead 

I hated my looks because of her 

But she didn’t do anything, sure 

I wish people would see 

She’s not who she claims to be 

 

She’s a villain 

In plain skin 

Haunting you from within 

She stabs and slice 

Tears and chops 

Until you are no more 

On the ground blending and sore 

 

Her love is none 

For nothing I’ve done 

She’s cold at heart 

And rips everyone apart 

I wish I was never under her control 

But now im free 

Free to finally be me

Me
