My Eyes |
Not a Mom but just a mother.
She calls me sweetie one minute then beats me the next.
She says I'm a failure and tells me I'm nothing then hugs me tight.
She tells me I mean the world to her and she loves me then she throws me across a room into a wall.
She tells me I'm dying then laughs.
She makes me promises then breaks them in the blink of an eye or doesn't ever fufill them at all.
She tries to drink away her pain and throws a wine glass and wine bottle at my face then says she's sorry and I know she doesn't mean it because she's drunk therefor I know she's lying.
She beats me with a belt for nothing and I fight back twice as hard,suddenly she's on the floor bleeding because of me I start to cry I can't believe what I've just done.
She wakes up from the blow of my fist and leaves bruises all over my body and face.This is the last time she'll ever do this.After she's done beating me she picks up the bottle again and drinks then falls asleep.
She awakes to the sound of officers at our doorstep.She looks at me as if she's going to kill me.I turn and get the things I packed while she was asleep.She opens the door for the police to come in.They see the blood on my mothers face and the bruises all over my face,neck,arms,and legs.They know good and well what has happened here then they see all the empty bottles on the floor.They tell her to take sobriaty test to see how drunk she is.They find she is very highly intoxicated.They take my sister and I away for good never for me to have to go through that again.And yet after all the scars she's given me,all the painful memories,all the hurt,all the nightmares,all the tears,and all the fear I still can't fully hate her,because she is my mother and she gave me life,granted not a very easy or good one but all the same she gave me life to live.And even though the scars will never fade,the memories will never be forgotten,and the pain will never cese I still go on living my life to the fullest.The difference between a MOM and a mother is that a mom loves you,takes care of you,and always tries to comfort you in your saddest times.While a mother is simply someone who gives birth to a child then shows no emotions,or feelings and no love to that child what-so-ever.
