Mommy Dearest

by Sweet Girl

Flashbacks of cries, yells and screams

Is still in haunt, or so it seems.

Reliving feelings of worry and fear

Terror and torment, year after year.

Home to home, each stranger so new

Just a child, crying for you.

Dead or alive, or do you care?

Born by you, seems so unfair.

Mommy Dearest-what did you do?

To throw away, your youngest two?

To treat so bad, to even abuse

You and you only, I'll always accuse.

Don't get me wrong, I love life now

Giving us up, was right somehow.

It's just the concept that I can't get

To just give up, and Parenthood quit.

You made our childhood, a living hell

But I realize now, it worked really well.

The best thing you did, was was sending us away

So you could no longer hurt us, and make us pay.

For all your wrongs, and all your mistakes

And all the choices, a failure makes.

So, to you Mommy Dearest, I say "Farewell"

You killed my childhood- but I still lived to tell.
