She came back
let's do therapy
instead

Sure, I though...
but it's not good
I feel irritated

She said the words
but I though these
words for many years

The many time
she told me
she wanted
to leave me

The many time
my heart was
broken

This time
although I might
be able to
glue it all together
it won't hold
for too long

My mom is home less
I received her here
a few days ago

Her bank account frozen
I lend her money so she
could cross Canada

She live in my studio
at the moment
She wanted to come
live with us
She has dream of a
happy family
re-united with
her son and her grandchild

She too threw me out
when I was 13
She chose her boyfriend
over her son
Like some many divorced
couple

I've created quite
the pattern
over the years

Now my ex-wife
wants my mother out
My ex wants to live
here with me as we
'figure things out'

I'm stuck between
an ex-wife that wants
to leave me
and a mother that
once kicked me out
of my home

I told my daugther
that we'll have to
move out of the house
by the end of the summer

"Thank God"
she answered
Everyone wants
out of this reality
that I've created
not for me but for
them

I want to vomit
I am sick in my stomach
I want out too
And for now
I'll just go
in front of...

Drying my tears
my mother
is coming up
I need to leave
I need to run
