WHAT IS WRONG WITH MOTHER

Whats Wrong With Mother?
I become possess
From my mother’s affliction
The heart cut itself 
When I anticipate her struggles 
It horrifies me

What’s wrong with mother?
The battle she endure
From a body which tend to fight itself
War break silence at the surfaces of her skin
Prolong at the edge of the hair follicle

What’s wrong with mother?
A few days of no pills
And my eyes burn 
From the salt liquid flowing between my lashes
Whenever i look upon her

What’s wrong with mother?
Her hair was remove without her consent
And like vampires she is now a victim to 
The humid rays of the smiling sun

What’s wrong with mother?
Her dark cluster patches 
Spreading all over her body frightens me
not another soul or demon, but a complex
nature fighting against itself.

The comparison with vampires is interesting. If the author added detail to this particular theme it would make this poem more interesting.
