Mommy Your Hurting Me. Poem by brittney keith

Mommy Your Hurting Me.



I was sitting here thinking
I use to call you mommy
I use to be your world
You use to be mine

Now that we are older
All we do is fight

What happened?
I thought we were
Best friends

Now I know you
Really don't care

You scare me when
you get that upset

You give me a headache
Make me clinch my jaw
I tense up when you come at
me like that

I cant breathe
or move
I just stand there

Your coming at me Im scared I try to
fight back
but you over power me

Here I say
'mommy your hurting me, '
but it dosent fase you
you just hurt me more and more

Then I stop breathing
My chest isnt moving

You relize it
You try to hide me

When you go to bed
I haunt your dreams

Mommy you killed me
I thought I was
your world we were best friends.

deep. yeah, isn't it amazing how parents can go from their child's idealized hero to their child's worst nightmare?
