Inconvenience?

As a kid, there's not much of 'you did good's from my mother i can recall
But she did ensure that i was not an inconvenience to any and all,
Hoping they would validate me when she was so afraid to
Shower me with tokens of appreciation that her younger self had craved too

All the while i was training to be the perfect doormat, to be pushed aside
To be less of myself and more of who would be liked, 
My sweet sweet mother, she gave all of herself to those she loved
And so, there i was, being poured into a multitude of cups,

 but oh, why was the floor underneath stained
Crimson with the remains of whatever it was that wailed
 But surely silently, for I was yet to be heard
Yet to be allowed a single mistake, or an uncalculated word

Well, I did grow up to be liked by everyone, as she wished, no doubt,
But when the doors were shut and the lights put out, 
One person outlasted my act, no more could I pretend
And to me, still, a mere inconvenience i  remained.
