4 a.m. and still no sleep,
Just can't get you off my brain.
You seep in like a poison,
Or a twisted song's refrain.
I kill you every night,
For all the wicked things you've done.
Then I beat your memory,
For how you think that you have won.
I hate the way you look at her,
And beat her spirit down.
The thought of you sickens us,
And in our vomit we drown.
I hate it that your genes run through me,
And even that I share your name.
I wish that I could beat you senseless,
For your utter lack of shame.
Now I have to comfort her,
Every time you make her cry.
I have to hug and hold her,
Until those tears run dry.
I hope you have a horrid life,
And for her love you pine.
But most of all I hope you know,
That we will be just fine.

Wow...nice poem. Like haunted blood and subliminal girl said, this is emotional. What stuck to my mind were these two lines:
You seep in like a poison,
Or a twisted song's refrain. -
It shows so much hurt, you've put all those feelings in it, and this way, you really make the reader also FEEL what you and your mother have been going through... I hope you are okay, I really liked this poem, very touching and honest...
