uhh... mom i don't like your new boyfriend

The moment you gave birth to me

I had to trust you

I had no choice

I needed you to protect me from the world

To be my guide

To help me navigate the difficult,

Confusing, and vulnerable journey to becoming a person

You have done none of those things

You're my mother

And you took a childs trust and smashed it into bits

In a seventeen year long mission

To destroy something that you killed a long time ago

And honestly when I turn eighteen

I don't know that I ever wanna see you again
