Her Family Broke Her
As she was trapped in her room,
she began to cry.

She became a child again
crying for her mother
stretching her arms out
trying to reach for her.
Her mother wouldn’t hear her
she didn’t have the ears to
nor the care.

She’s felt too much neglect
by her own mother.

She then yearns for her grandmother
who was a mother figure
but is now gone
due to her passing.
She wishes her grandmother
could see how far she’s come
and how much she’s improved.

She know’s it’s too late
and wished it wasn’t.

Now, she’s screaming in her pillow
getting out all the anger she’s had
with her grandfather.
She screamed as if her lungs came out
just like he did when he yelled at her.
He was like a father figure to her
and he did the best he could
but was far from perfect.

She wished he could control himself
when he gets angry
but she doubts that’ll ever happen.

She finally grasps onto her pillow
crying her few last tears.
She holds it as tight as she can
and tries her best to calm down.

Her mommy and daddy issues
had become the best of her.

She’s broken inside
and she needs her family
to see it and heal her
before it’s too late.
