You may shoot me with your words, you may cut me with your eyes, you may kill me with your hatefulness, but still, like air, I will rise.

Poem No.3: Mother 's Eyes

Your eyes wander,
whenever I begin to speak,
glancing above and below,
My eyebrows, 
My nose,
My thighs,
And every time,
I continue my story,
Hoping that things will be different,
Hoping you will have listened,
And it hurts,
It really, really hurts,
That I allow myself to take in so much hope,
That I care more about you than the times you've brought me down,
I guess it's sad that I never learn,
I don't know who I'm more disappointed in,
Because after all the chances I've given,
Not once have you ever proven me wrong,
But I will probably still try again tomorrow.
