Mother
April 9, 2019
anger and hostility,
feeling attacked and judged
At the end of the day,
The lost child
killing my spirit
Isolated, living in society
Emotions out of control.
failing, getting hurt, and hurting others
You’re to blame
you’re stupid, or ugly, or incapable or all of the above
And no one will love you
-At least this is what my mother said
