This poem means so much yet so few recognize the true meaning. It's about my mom.
                      Anguish

The mental anguish
    That I’ve withstood all these years
        Slowly begins to writhe back in my life
I’ll never understand
    Why she did what she did
        Tricked me into thinking she actually loved me
And I was the fool
    I fell into her trap and fell
        Till the void in my heart complete darkness
And yet still
    I sit here, a boy lost
        In the shell of a man, hollow, confused
Lord, help me
    For my soul may be consumed
        The darkness reaches the void one becomes numb
Help me, help me. 
    So confused, don't know what to do,
          Don’t lose me, Lord, I’m all they’ve got.
But with Anguish
    Comes the truth, the pure light.
          The truth that will shine into the darkness.
I won’t be
      Lost, forever, eternity, for truth rises
          Above all Evil, and my time will come.
