Poem: after all these years
and all of the tears
my mother is still the same
giving me the blame
i will never know why
does she like to make me cry?
she still puts me down
and always wears a frown
never felt her love in my heart
it wasn't there from the start
it causes me great pain
like a walk in the winter rain
my brother does no wrong
i was the bad one all along
i remember all the empty looks
your head always stuck in books
have you ever really seen me?
i am alive can't you see
why were you silent for so long?
to punish me when i did wrong
so many times you turned away
when i needed you everyday
i'd shut my door and cry
because i never knew why
you never loved me...
