Rain.
A misconception.
Her mother sighed as she ate chocolate chip-brownie fudge- cookie dough and cream ice cream, telling her passively these same exact words.
Honey you'll be lonely in this world. Only I can save you.
Honey stay with me now, you're not able enough to leave.
You are too weak to bleed.
Honey come with me now,
and I'll teach you how
to survive this demeaning palace.
Oh my dear daughter, rough days are to come.
Follow me here, to a chamber of secrets.
Ignore the remarks, just enjoy the silence.
Come to me here, in my old death robes.
Come with me today, don't go away.
You won't be alone, there's room to spare. I've got food to eat and music to blare.
There's things to learn and stuff to do, you won't be left not working for a single moment of truth.
I hope you're listening, for I know you so
well I can see the rage in your face but I

dont care.

no. i do not
care

for your sick antics,
i do not care for your sinful targets
you must do as I say
no I am not insane
MOTHER WHY MUST YOU BE SO
I dont know
I dont know
I
dont
know.

She said as she swept off her feet.
She wailed as the ground shook beneath
her rotten words and 100% correct exam scores
all AP she screeched as she fell
and yet
yet her last breath
it was

soft.

soft sweet cherries in the summer
soft warm cheeks in the hollow winter's night
soft kittens in the playing light of fire

softly she whispered

why did it even matter

softly she hinted

a sweet apology.

rain.
Rain falls as she quivers, my mother gone from me.
Rain falls as she cries, missing only sweet memories.
Rain falls as she listens, to the deep harmony.
Rain falls around me
as my head
hurts
so
bad
sweets arent good for me
mother

i should have heard.

the rain.
