Motherhood

Everytime I feel like

I’m fully healing 

You open another wound

Aren’t you suppose to heal me your my mother 

Aren’t you suppose to love me I’m daughter 

Can’t remember the last time you said You loved me

I’ve never received apologies 

I’ve never received affection 

I always wondered if you see yourself through me 

Like all the battles I deal with are simply a reflection of your personal DNA

Yes I get you’ve had a traumatic childhood

So did I

You put me through it 

Does it make it right to continue the cycle

Women of power you heal everyone around you 

I never understood 

I’ve never understood my mother is a therapist 

I’ve never understood 

I found your notebooks and photos

You hide under a vail

You hide your emotions 

Mother or birth mom 

In this new journey you will take 

Remember you didn’t want me to find out you were getting married 

But you want me a part of this wedding 

So you can hold me up like a fake advertisement sign 

“This is my daughter” “we get along just great”

No 

It’s sad to say but my parents have put me through everything 

Your my biggest down fall
