i'm sick.

the doctor said
something with
too many letters
and i couldn't repeat it
for the
life of me.

it's not too much,
the ailment i bear.

it's my nose
or my throat
or something like that
but he gave me some
cough syrup
and pills

they say
take a little at a time,

but i know
it'd be easier
for everyone
if i took it

all
at
once.

i know you,
mother,
you wouldn't even cry.

you wouldn't shed the tears
that i am now,
or you would
just for show.

you don't love me.

stop lying.

i try
just as hard
if not
harder
to be
good,
but it's not working.

that or you
don't love
me
