She was
At her mother’s funeral
She can't bring
Herself to feel sad
Over her mother’s death
She can't bring
Herself to shed any tears
For her mother
If anything she simply
Feel nothing
About this woman
Who carried her for nine months
Who had given life to her
When she look at her mother's
Dead body in the coffin
She feels like she is looking
At a stranger
Once they were close
Once she had loved her mother
With all her heart
But not any more
Her father had changed
Their relationship
For the worse
Her father touched her
In places
That he shouldn’t
With tears
Streaming down from
Her eyes
She told her mother
About what her father
Did to her
Her mother
Refused to believe her
Her mother called her a liar
Her mother stressed that she knows
Her husband so well
That her husband will not do such
Unspeakable act
Her mother slapped her
Her mother told her never
Again to tell this fabricated story
Her mother told her never
Again to paint her husband
As a villain
Dad never stopped
Touching her
Till she was old enough
To move out
And to find her own place
Her mother kept blind eyes
To what ever her dad
Was doing to her
Her mother
Did absolutely nothing
Her mother needs to believe
That she had a perfect marriage
That she had a perfect husband
And her daughter had a perfect dad
Even on her deathbed,
Her mother refuses to see the truth
Now,
Can she be blamed
For not crying at
Her mother’s funeral
