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?
