Mother

I held your hand


While you spoke with a doctor


I looked at him and smiled


He looked at me worriedly


You took a bottle of candy from him


And we were on our way


I am now fifteen


Trapped on my bed


My legs don’t work anymore


Neither do my thoughts


I never felt happy anymore


Not since I met that worried doctor


I felt closed in


Like a dog in a kennel


The rats drove me crazy


They made me go insane


The doctors came


And took me away


They took away my candy


And locked me in a room


The isolation made me realize


The crazy one was you


Those candies you gave me


Made me hear the rats


They made me go insane


That is until now


I’m out of that awful place now


You’re in a cage


Feeling how you made me feel


To this day I still wonder


What made you do that to me, my mother?
