You weren't suppose to hit me You weren't suppose to scratch me You weren't suppose to call me names You weren't suppose to accuse me You were suppose to love me Give me a hug and a pat on the head Call me your daughter And tell me your proud I felt so alone and worthless I felt like I didn't matter I'll never be good enough Just always in the way Towards the end You tried to love me Tried to praise me Tried to be a mother Now your dead And I'm left wondering Depressed and confused Lonely and scared Was I ever enough Am I not worthless Was I a good daughter Did I ever earn your love? Years have passed And im here still trying to Gain your acceptance Knowing ill never know

You're not worthless.
I'm sorry your own mother treated you that way. That's a really powerful poem.
