Moma...

By TheMistressBucket

I'm sorry.
So sorry I couldn't do it.
I couldn't be loved,
and I never could win the heart on the fucking wall...
I'm sorry Moma,
I didn't learn the first time.
I'm sorry I couldn't do like I should have,
for you.
I'm sorry that in the end,
I couldn't settle for settling...
I know how disapointed you
and your family are in me.
I'm sorry Moma,
I couldn't be more
like what you expected of me.
I'm sorry Moma,
I didn't fall far enough from the tree...
