dear mother,
In your bad moments where you feel the neverending rage, why do you do what you've always been doing to me? Im just a child, i just need your love. Not just the motherly love every mother feels for her child but rather I want you to for once like me for being the human that i am. I am may be way too far from perfect, may be too full of flaws but surely not the worst right. right?
i curse you out and see your wrongs
but then you act like a mother
and i die a little with every breath that i allow myself to take in, in my shabby lungs.
were you really wrong or was my anger too blinding?
did you really not like your child or was it the burst of suppressed emotion you've always kept buried deep inside your heart? or was it because the past had been too hard on the little girl and the angsty teen you once were? is it because you're confused and scared since its your first time living this life too?
i don't know i don't understand.
or may be i do. may be i get you enough to feel this gut wrenching guilt for not reaching out to you, for hating you because i love you too much, for not wanting to see your pain but be selfish enough to whine about mine.
i want to forgive you, i wish i could.
for you may have not liked this child, but every child loves their mother.
I won't admit to you but oh i love you, even when you hurt me, even when i feel like surrendering myself to dear death whenever you talk to me, especially when you talk to me.
I hope you loved me the same way those mothers in the movies love their daughters. Then i wouldn't have always urged myself to switch channels on my TV to avoid watching the kind of love i long for. To not gaslight myself into believing that this kind of love exists only in movies, at such a young age.
Why? why do you love me? please hate me so i can resent you with all my heart. Why do you have to love me and make it so much harder? why?

[Dear mother, can you hear me whining? It's been three whole weeks since I, I have left your home. This sudden fear has left me tremblin'. 'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own. And I'm feelin' so alone.]

down here i fear i've become far too concerned with everything i'm given, nothing that i've earned.

A real man
Having watched my mom growing up, I quickly found out that she was weak
And having grown up as the only girl in a family of boys, I quickly found out that I, too, was weak
My brothers were rough, rowdy, and boisterous– as all young boys are
They were a joy to be around, and I loved their disorderly ways
But soon, it came to a point where they were aware that I was different. "Because I'm a girl," they said
A girl, I never realized I was a girl before– who would soon be a woman
That revelation shook me, and quickly, it angered me
Because to be a woman is to be soft
Because to be a woman is to always be a little girl
Because to be a woman is to never be a real man
My father, he was a real man and nothing like my mother
Once his car arrived into the driveway, my mother would sigh weakly
He was big compared to her, intimidating to speak to, and had piercing eyes
His fists were harsh, but the words that came out of his mouth did even more damage
His presence was noticeable, and it scared us at times
As rough as he was, he was someone that us children looked up to
By comparison, my mother was delicate, always tripping over her own emotions
When she attempted to speak, we'd all exchange silent glances and laugh– her head was always full of foolish ideas
Be like my mother? No, I'll be a man
I'll be a real man, I won't cry.
I'll be a real man, my word's will hit harder than any other
I'll be a real man, one who can stand on his own and make others obey
But most of all, I'll be the son my dad wished he had.
Will this save me from my mother's fate, I wonder...

It felt right to put it here.

Dearest mother,
I'll never forget the moment I realized calling out 'mom' would never result in meeting you ever again....
Perhaps my first lesson of loosing you and the reality hitting home.
I still pretend it's not real... like now... here I am calling you
'MOM!'
Love,
Your adoring daughter

I ask my mother: "what do you desire?" She says: "I would like to go, see the ocean."
My father laughs; I do not. A woman's death is a slow one, it happens piece by piece.
And one day, bones heavy, mind alive, she sits quietly and thinks
I would've liked to see the world, too"

it’s funny isn’t it? irony.
You tell me to make friends then tell me to stop talking to them…You tell me I’m a disappointment and when I try to change you don’t say shit…You tell me you’re always be there I laugh when you say that.
Were you there at my lowest? Did you love me at my lowest? No you didn’t and yet…I come back to you, to this toxic family because I have nothing else because after all I am nothing.
I’m sorry mom, sorry I can’t be the daughter you want…and I can’t fake it anymore either.

Flabbergasted and incredibly hurt
Dear mother, The tone of your last letter has I am ashamed to admit, left me flabbergasted and incredibly hurt. I therefore shall be dealing with the accusations in your letter with the short shrift they deserve. Straight to the point. Just because I have lived with Anthony for around ten years does not make me as you quaintly put it, ‘a sodomite’. Yes, we go on regular holidays together and…

Dearest mother,
I would send you flowers everyday if you were still alive. I’m so sorry for what I’ve done. Please forgive me.
