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?
