No matter what I did
I was never good enough for you.
For 19 fucking years I tried
to be the perfect daughter,
but my best was never good enough.
You know, the happiest day of my
entire life was the day you died.
Sad, isn't it?
You made my life a living hell.
Well, hopefully now you're burning,
just like you made me burn.
You never gave a damn,
just that thought is enough to make
your passing all that much sweeter.
You saw the abuse and the tears,
but you never did a damned thing.
That alone was enough to show you
never cared...
I was your daughter, but you
believed your boy of the month...
You even SAW what was happening,
but you refused to believe the evidence
that was right in front of your face.
What kind of mother lets that happen?
Where the hell were you during the beatings?
Oh well, none of that matters now.
You're dead, and I'm free,
and that's all that really matters.
Goodbye Mother Dearest.

Sis'...been awhile...
WOW!!! I remember the talks we shared about your past, and it made me so pissed to think you had to go through that Hell...if I was around you then, I would have fucked them up for all of that...maybe now, you really can find some inner-peace and freedom from it...I know it hurts....I have my scars from the past as well...you remember: I am still and will always be here for you, OK...I got your back...

Sad to say, I can understand alot of this one... Though I didn't have to deal with it for as long. This is a very well written and powerfully emotional poem. I look foreward to reading more of your writings...
-
Amazing
Again - powerful emotion and with this type of emotional release. Refreshing. The BS line of forgive and let go don't always work, so this hits the way it should. Amazing piece.

I am glad you are free of all those chains that once bound you to a living hell. You should never try to be the perfect anything, but You should be the you inside. Not something you are not. Your poem lashes out with teh pain you carried for so many years and I am glad to see you are finally free...
I with you the best of luck in the contest you entered but to me... you are as good as gold
