Goodbye to Mom

These words will be my last
We'll never speak again
I will not see your face
Not now or years from then
I do not need your love
No more will I grieve
You may still be alive
But it's me you still did leave
You broke all our hearts
You crushed our family
And now all that's left
Is my dad and me
I do not have regret
I've forgiven way too much
And no longer will I care
Or wish for your loving touch
I am not the reason
You were the only one
The whole time I felt guilty
It shouldn't have been done
You don't have real feelings
You're not the mom I knew
You have no part of me anymore
I want no part of you
My sweet sisxteen without you
You were't there for prom
You missed my graduation
To me that doesn't say mom
You will not see me happy
You won't see me say I do
You will not meet your grandkids
And they won't hear of you
I don't want card for holidays
I don't want to know you care
Because I know it's a lie
So don't you even dare
This is my way of telling you
I'm done with you, goodbye
I don't care if this upsets you
I don't care if you cry
So don't write, don't call
I won't answer you
Do nothing at all

This is close to how I feel about my mom right now. You have a gift for poetry.
