Maybe she saw the truth, but she chose to ignore it
Better to be happy than have to face the problem
And she doesn’t know who she is
Maybe she kept the pain hidden in her scars, still hides it
Better to smile than to have them ask what’s wrong
And no one knows who she is
She will scream • and break all that you stand for
With her voice • all that stood will fall before
What is real • and it’s uncomfortable
But it’s real • and unpredictable
So let her wake • you • up and •When you sleep
You’ll see her in your dreams • Wake up

I like your poem Ascah. How are you feeling today?
My mom just threatened to kick me out of the house.
I’m not sure if that’s a good or bad thing.
I hate my mother and I don’t want to stay in this house, but I don’t know if I can handle being on my own just yet.
So I don’t know how I feel today…I’m just really confused.
So your mother has threatened you when you are inn a state that you can’t get out of that situation? Just prove yourself to be a stronger person and move out anyway. I know it’ll be hard, and yes I’m in my 20s, but believe me, I know what it’s liike to move away from some dog of a woman who’s meant to be the mother who bore you! It is fucking hard, but believe me if you move out, you’ll eventually work things out, knowing you don’t have to live with your Mum anymore. Life is too hard full-stop. Your Mum is just beiing a ***** to you so you need to show her ssomehow that you won’t tolerate that shit in your life. I’m not any better off than you are, I just wanted to let you know my experience of getting away from an abusive parent, and that it can be done.
