miss you mom

this is for my mom in the shadows where the pain lingers, hope slips, Mama’s tears fell like rain, in the night it drips. Used to see her smile fade, like a ghost in the mist, Whispers of the past haunt me, memories I can't resist. Daddy’s rage was a storm, that left us battered and bruised, Innocence stolen, we were trapped and confused. Heart heavy with the weight of a love that was lost, Now I’m standing at the edge, counting all the costs. Graduation dreams faded, she was gone too soon, Left me searching for the light beneath a blood-red moon. Every step I take, feels like I'm walking on glass, Haunted by the shadows of a childhood that won’t pass. Echoes of her laughter, now just a distant sound, In a world full of chaos, just trying to stand my ground. Every scar tells a story, every tear is a fight, But I’m rising from the ashes, ready to ignite. Shadows in the hallway, echoes of the past, Memories of laughter, but the pain's built to last. Momma held me tight, while he threw all the blows, Every tear she cried, like a river that flows. Whispers in the night, secrets buried deep, Promises he made, but they cut like a creep. Graduation cap, but she ain't there to see, Heart heavy with grief, trapped in this debris. Darkness in my soul, like a storm in the sky, Hate brewing inside, wishing he would die. Years of abuse, left scars on my mind, But I rise from the ashes, leaving demons behind. Memories haunt me, but I’m breaking the chain, Fighting through the struggle, embracing the pain. With every step I take, I’m reclaiming my worth, She taught me to be strong, now I’m reborn from the earth.
