Fuck you, I want to scream at her
Fuck you for hurting me
Fuck you for not protecting me
Fuck you for walking away when I needed you the most
Fuck you for never encouraging me
Fuck you for never having faith in me
“Pray about it, and eat a banana”
I wish I could look to you, instead of trying to look up
To a god I don’t believe in
I learned how to be a mom, by watching you
If I do everything the opposite of you
I will be the perfect mother to my child
brutal, emotion, hurt, raw
speak it out as long as you need, until each word becomes its opposite…
Beautiful. Terrible. True.
My father, not my mother.
You know I relate.
