Mummy!

~ Mummy~

I did tell you

I did tell you

I did tell you

It’s true,

The moment I started cutting myself,

the day I started skipping school

when my grades started to drop

I did tell you,

when I started writing suicide notes

in the middle of a school day afternoon

sitting out back on the train tracks,

when I said the words

“I wanted to die”

and showed you my scars

I did tell you,

and what did you say?

“Oh well, if that’s the way you feel, I guess I’ll see you in paradise.”

Those are not the words you say

to fix a little girls life, in pain

Not if you’re a supporting and loving parent in any way,

of the 12 year old girl successfully throwing her life away

The help needed never came,

I did tell you

I did tell you

I did tell you

It’s true!
