I craved your love more than anything in this
But it always felt like something I had to pry
from you. I begged and pleaded for even a hint
of affection, but instead, I settled for ridicule
and fleeting conversation.Our communication
was always a struggle, a fight,
And I knew deep down that it wasn't quite
right. Seeing mothers with their children, grief
hit me hard, for the motherly love I yearned for
was forever marred. Whenever we're together,
there's a ticking time bomb, yet I still overstay
my welcome, holding on to a false calm
I know deep down that this is all we'l ever
have, and it's hard to watch you try after so
I can't allow myself to believe that you've
changed, not when l've been proven wrong by
It's time to face the truth and accept the
reality, that a toxic mother's love is not worth
the agony: will no longer beg or plead
For it's not worth the pain and the hurt
