Dear MUM,

A daughter’s struggle to leave her mum.

Hey Mum, 

Have you ever loved me?

 
 

Why

do you act so differently

when others are around?

I almost think

that you are two-faced.

I empathise

with your fears and insecurities.

How could I do otherwise?

But you weren’t there when I needed you.

When I cried, you neglected my emotions and said,

“How can you cry when I am the one who suffer more?” 

 
 

And so, I always have to wipe

away my tears,

and console you instead.

I am sorry,

I have to leave,

I just need

to find a safe place to cry.
