I’m a big screw up



I never would have

Thought this would happen in a million

Years. I always thought

My mom was proud of me

But I guess that was all a fantasy. My

Mom got angry at me when I knocked

A dove off the self.  She yelled  that pisses me

Off I said for knocking a little dove you’re that mad?

She said you’re always messing something up

We can’t have nothing in this house for you.

Those words nearly torn me apart.

I feel like I’m a screw up like I’m not

Worth nothing to nobody now for sure.

I wanted to cut myself so bad to forget

The harsh words and everything but I

Stayed strong.  I’m so mad at myself for

Making mom so angry. I feel as though

I just want to destroy myself to erase

All the pain I caused myself and everybody.

At this point I think this world be better

Off without me but don’t worry I’ll hang on

Even though it seems pointless to try

Any longer I won’t let go!
