All I remember is roads
The space between places
You’d think you’d go at your own paces
But everything changes
IN A SNAP
Birds and bees
Those are the things I see
Outside of car windows
and inside of my soul
My mother my mother
The leader of my life
Led me down a dark hole
For me to tole
And I would never come back
She told me things I shouldn’t have known
She told me the things I had to own
Up too
Her mistakes and her lies
Follow me
Even though I try
to escape
But my mother is my mother
And I truly have to love her
She always did tell me I’m special
And now I see
After all my hardships
And my rough seas
I know now that
I mean something more
Because I am more
I’m selfless and I deal with my pain
That you put on my since the day
That I was born
I am your daughter
And you are my mother
But you expected me to be so sore
Like you
But I’m more mother
I’m more than what you planned for

The rest of the poem flows very well and is very well connected. However, the first eight lines don’t seem to fit in with it. It’s difficult to see the connection between those lines and the rest of the poem.
