Mother

Mother, where have you been?
You couldn't give me love
I was not good enough
People liked you
The church was fully booked
At your funeral
I have also wept

Do you remember
When the bird died
Hansel and Gretel
Broken bones
Mute screams
Oil on the walls
Desperate cries behind it
Respiratory arrest
Fear of death

Mother, where have you been?
You couldn't give love
Confusion and displacement
You've had many girlfriends
But also children
Who knew nothing of your illness
Everyone cried

I don't know who you were
You didn't know who I was
black holes
Full Pain
Sad truth
Conspiracy and lies
Fear and secrecy
Curse words and order
I wish I could cry

Mother, where have you been
When I needed you?
