Your work is done,
I haven't complained.
So why do you tell me,
that I am worthless?
That I can do nothing>

Have I done something?
Anything to upset you?

Well too bad.

Game over.

I will be leaving soon.
Just a few weeks away.

Get over it.
Hopefully you'll survive.

I won't tell you where I'm going.

So guess what?
You lost at your own game.


I won,

and now I'm free.

So I'm gone.
And never coming back.

I love you mom,
But I have to go now.

My English teacher Mrs. Heymoss inspired me to write this piece. This is completely fictional. I wrote this for a chapter in the book my class is writing.
