We haven't spoken for years, but I want you to know
I forgive you for...
How you told me you hated me
and didn't exist
Locking me in the closet
Beating me till I lay unconscious,
blood streaming from my tiny body
Teaching me how to pray, like a mantra,
"God, let me please die this time"
Learning what not to be
I forgive you because
You are evil incarnate, hate and weak
I am a beacon, love embodied and strong
No more will you haunt my dreams
No more tears will I cry for you
No longer will I live with your installed fear
And for the last time
I Love You Mother Dear
