Mother, your words shoot me like a bullet on my chest. Your anger slices me apart like a knife through butter. But mother, your love is deep like the ocean, and I'm drowning and drowning, I don't know how to swim. Mother, I love you but your love, cuts my wounds open. Yours broken, like a glass, and when I come to hug you, it stings. You ask me mother, why I created a distance, why did I choose the silence? Mother, I want us both to stop hurting.
