Sometimes

Sometimes I hear the compassion in her voice

When she asks about me

When she sees me in physical pain


Sometimes it softens me to her

Then I remember how much pain she's caused

Then I remember her breaking me


Sometimes it scares me how much I hate her

Because I don't hate me more

Because some days I can't even find the energy to hate


Sometimes I wish she wasn't my mother

And that scares me

Because it's most of the time
