#374 Brood's Voice (excerpt)
Mama will you miss me
Just in case I’m already gone
When I have finally set down
Like the pale mournful sun
Mama will you cry for me
Like the way I cried because of you
For all the days I felt unloved
And all the pain you put me thru
I don’t think so mama
I don’t think you would
Because for you I’m nobody
I’m only half as good
Mama I know
You’ve never been proud of me
Hanging gold medals on my neck
Really never made you happy
I don’t know how to please you
And somehow make you care
I don’t know why you treated me unkind
And acted so unfair
Mama remember that day
You scold me till I bleed
I beg you to stop
But you didn’t hear my plead
And when Papa tried to stop you
You yelled him that I deserve it
The pain is so severe then
I rally can’t forget it
But I’m older now
And you can beat me no more
Yet I still feel the pain
Of the wounds you gave me before
All insecurities I feel are all because of you
I’m your own brood Mama
But look at what you made me to
You made it hard for me to believe
Others can love and respect me
Knowing that my own mama
Can’t even stand by me
Yet past has passed
There’s nothing more we can do
But remember this Mama
I still love you
