My Mother has no heart.
And don’t ever try to convince me that
Her loving and compassionate nature is genuine
Because
I know the real person beneath the façade.
I have to admit that
It hurts to see what the world refuses to see
Because when you really take a closer look
And
When every bit of the pretense is stripped away
There is absolutely nothing left
Because
My Mother only pretends to care
You will never in this lifetime convince me that
Motherly love is apparent in all that she does.
