Lyric Poem: Mother of Mine

Mother of mine, what pushed you away?

Was it his failure to please you;

Was it me begging you to stay?

Mother of mine, you left me broken,

Smoldering with hatred,

My heart you have stolen.

I prayed you’d come around, prayed you stay away,

But no matter what I prayed,

You came first

You stole the show

Battered and broken, my mother I did not desire to know.

Your poison overtook us, my father and I,

We chased your golden promises,

But fell empty with your high;

 So I wrote this to tell you off,

Wrote this to let you know,

That we are better off without you;

We’ll leave you to your snow.
