Disclaimer: I do not own the Flowers in the Attic series by V.C. Andrews or the song "Emotionless" by Good Charlotte.

Note/Inspiration: I was reading Petals on the Wind and "Emotionless" happened to start playing on my playlist. I'm listening to the words and I think to myself, "Hey, this relates a lot to Flowers in the Attic". However, I'm going to change a few words to make it perfectly sit the story. Enjoy.

Hey mom

I'm writing to you

not to tell you, that I still hate you

just to ask you

how you feel

and how we fell apart

how this fell apart

are you happy out there in this great wide world?

do you think about your sons?

do you miss your little girls?

when you lay your head down

how do you sleep at night?

do you even wonder if we're all right?

but we're all right

we're all right

it's been a long hard road without you by my side

why weren't you there all the nights that we cried

you broke your parents' heart

you broke your children for life

it's not ok,

but we're all right

I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes

but those were just a long lost memory of mine

I spent so many years learning how to survive

Now, I'm writing just to let you know that I'm still alive

the days I spent so cold, so hungry

were full of hate

I was so angry

those scars run deep inside this pale, weak body

there's things I'll take, to my grave

but I'm okay

I'm okay

it's been a long hard road without you by my side

why weren't you there all the nights that we cried

you broke your parents' heart

you broke your children for life

it's not ok,

but we're all right

I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes

but those were just a long lost memory of mine

Now, I'm writing just to let you know that I'm still alive

yeah, I'm still alive

sometimes

I forgive

yeah and this time

I'll admit

that I miss you, said I miss you

it's been a long hard road without you by my side

why weren't you there all the nights that we cried

you broke your parents' heart

you broke your children for life

it's not ok,

but we're all right

I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes

but those were just a long lost memory of mine

Now, I'm writing just to let you know that I'm still alive

and sometimes

I forgive

and this time

I'll admit, that I miss you, miss you

hey mom
