paper thin walls

relationship with my mother

The walls are paper thin. 
Did you think they weren't? 
I hear every word you say. 
Did you think I couldn't? 

I'm only two feet away while your words float carelessly towards me. But, you don't care now do you? 
       
"Worthless.", "Good for nothing...", "Should have had a son." 

 Why do you say these things momma? What did I do wrong!? I'm not perfect. Is that it? Is that why you prefer a son!? Your words cut through me momma as I sit here alone with these paper thin walls.

This felt like a very personal piece, we all have to encounter things in life which we don't really want and words do really cut deep, a very good read well done

You took me back to my childhood, I remember hearing some pretty
hurtful things, I'm sorry you are going through that, it does suck!
Hang in there, I have a piece called keep your head up that
might make u smile, thanks for sharing and b-blessed!
