Dear Mom


You say you love me

But why’d you leave me

You said you need me

But you didn’t feed me

You say don't leave me

But I'm just too deep

I'm on my knees

I can't sleep

I don't want to be me

I have this heavy heep

To cry and till I seep

Through the blanks were I sleep

I hear this slight creak

You can call me a creep

But it's from the hole you keep

Way down deep

Inside of me
