the rebellious one

you taught me
to speak
and found it
cute
when all i'd say
is please
and thank
you
i apologize
i do
for transforming
them into
fours
with this mouth
that screams
profanities
you prayed this
isn't what i'd
be-
unhappy
and i apologize
i do
for
putting cancer sticks
between my lips
and breathing
deep
but a part of
me
wants to die a
little more
slowly
i say it's
nothing
personal
i'm just not
my mother's
daughter
i'm her
mistake
that's forsaken
her
i apologize
i do
for flushing
poison through my
veins
through this
mind
you tried to make
perfect
and as much as
i
apologize
there's still no
compromise
i still hear tears
drop
and a soul shattering
blow
as you pray
to the God i've
abandoned
about
letting me go
"but i'll always love
her,
let her know"
