looking back on the things i've done
i see now how much alike you i really was
and sadly, it is something i never wanted
i desperately wanted to be different than you
so i tried to change everything i could
still your face, remained, reminding always
even to this day i can't stand you
i ask myself how in the hell i could have loved you
cried out to you in the dark
when the nightmares became too much to handle
so tell me now, why should i go back
i see what you really are, see through the lies
try and act all perfect, that you never made the mistakes
when all you've ever done, was destroy everyone around
so here is where i tell you good bye
and if you ever come looking for me
i can promise you this, it just may be the last thing
that you ever do
i hate you, never want to see you, and i will
never, ever be like you, so just give up
joellen, you aren't my mother, never have been
and sure as hell never will be

This is raw, every word seems to resonate your anger. It's honest, and that's how all poems ought to be. a good write.

Shame that you hate your mother, but we can't always like a family member. So it's better to just keep away from the people you hate, otherwise you both end up getting hurt.
Anyway...keep on penning -
This is painfully honest hon, i'm sorry you feel this way.
One the lighter side, it is really well written, though honesty always is.
