Defense
(Tw: trauma?? Abuse ish) angry rant poem.
You get mad when I protect my mother
You ask me angrily why
I’m so close to snapping at you
When you disrespect her when it’s not even her at fault
There’s a reason you’re all alone.
So here dad,
Here’s why.
I remember the day you threw that mug.
My mom says it was at her and not me.
I remember the days you would yell at her
Because she had a different opinion then you.
I remember the days where my brother got the same actions as you.
Now I am afraid to raise my voice and defend myself to you two.
I remember the days you kicked my dog
Because you were mad at my mom.
I remember the days you treated her terribly
And now you still do but in front of me.
I’m glad you don’t live with her anymore
I’m glad she got this divorce.
Stay the fuck out of why I defend her
Because I’m so similar to her
And I know you hate it.
She’s my mom
She’s my world
Take a step back.
