As I grew, my eyes opened I began to see my mother As she truly was And that's when I met depression. While she pretended to care I began to realize that she didn't And that she never really had I would later find out just why. She had wanted a daughter So I disappointed her I was rejected from birth For being born a male. She had tried to be Rid of me from the start She offered her child away But my father halted her plans. He gave me his unending support Which she swore that I didn't deserve Thus I grew up with her contempt Which only fed my very own. I remember growing up With feelings of worthlessness I learned to hate from my mother To hate her, myself, and this world.
