Dear Mom
Dear mom
I tell you about my insomnia.
You say of course I don't have insomnia.
I tell you about my anxiety.
You tell me of course I don't have anxiety.
I say I don't like fish,
You say 'yes you do.'
I hint at my depression.
You call me a 'good girl.'
My throat starts swelling when I eat shrimp.
You say 'you're not really allergic.'
I take a benadryl.
But there is no pill
For the sympathy you'll never give me.
