Rejection is eating me alive
Across the room she sports a satisfied grin
Yes you know your hurting me
Tearing my insides out
Slowly shrinking me down to nothing
You call yourself a mother
But you choose favorites
The one not chosen is kicked in the heart
The soul bruised and dying
Hatred will soon reside
Numbing the pain
Scabbing these ever bleeding wounds
This once bright young woman
No longer reachs for the stars
Instead she searches
The bottom of the hot damn bottle
Look mom at what you've done
She no longer cares to try
And what does she do before going to sleep?
The only thing she can do
Cry...

if you only knew how much i can relate all i can say is shoot for those stars and dont let it drag you down because it will ..trust me on this it will ..loved your poem....if parents only knew what their love meant to a child ....

Oh sweetie...I can feel your pain...because I am hurting right now too. I saw every detail in your poem and I wish I could do something for you. God bless you for you don't deserve that.

Excellent way of putting your feelings out there, shadowp, there are so many here that will be sharing in your pain.
You just keep right on reaching, baby.
