Array ( [sid] => 84758 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I heard You. [time] => 2005-02-17 16:18:43 [hometext] => I love my mom [bodytext] => You think I don’t listen,
So you scream in my face more.
I’m not deaf, mommy.
I hear everything you say to me,
Everything you say to other people,
All the stuff you told to Dad.
I heard it mom.
I know you’re upset with me,
I know you say to people,
That you just don’t love me sometimes.
I know you think I’m too hard to handle.
I know your plans of sending me away.
You think I didn’t listen,
So you screamed louder,
You hit me harder,
I’m not deaf, mommy.
I wish I didn’t hear everything you said.
I know that I’m not the greatest kid,
But I never thought I was as awful as you said.
You hit me really hard one day,
You screamed a lot more.
You swung a knife at my face,
You cursed and you swore.
It hurt my ears real bad,
You were only a step away.
I’m sorry mommy,
But I made up my mind that day.
I promised I’d make your life easier.
I took a knife, like the one you swung.
I used it to cut my wrists,
I cut my legs too,
My hips as well.
I took a lot of pills each night,
Hoping I’d go to hell.
The place you said I belonged.
It never worked.
So I cut deeper,
I stopped talking to you like you asked,
I stopped looking at you, like you warned.
And on your birthday I took more pills,
As much as I could stomach.
The next day I had to go to the hospital,
They didn’t know what was wrong.
But to your misfortune I had survived.
Now you’re madder than ever,
So I’m sorry mommy,
I’m sorry I’m alive.

this is the best piece ive read from you so far. what sold me on it? the emotion. sure, a piece can be written so well that you actually feel sorry for that person, but it is not written well enough if you cant feel what they feel. this piece is amazing, the ending spectacular. ive written things with the ending concept. quite popular around here, lol. and something ive noticed with your pieces is that youre sorry for a lot of things you shouldnt be.
