There's so much indifference
in my heart. You
did this to me at an early age.
Mother, may I tell you
of my nightmares?
Mother, may I tell you
why I smile in graveyards?
Mother, may I tell you
of my addictions? Most of all,
to sadness.
Still,
I am too strong to wish for petty things, like
happiness and
your love.
Mother, you taught me to feel nothing.
And I shall make it
mine.
