Damn, this was impactful. Every other word hit me like a ton of bricks. I love it :)

Thank you - I really appreciate your suggestions. I also thought that it needs a bit more punctuation, except where I deliberately didn't use any to create enjambment so that lines can have a different meaning in themselves or in relation to each other. But other than that, I will try experimenting with the punctuation. 

This is a very powerful piece, and the first few lines are just beautiful:  
"I'm sorry I left you  
Crying but  
You gave my books away"

I think it could be even more powerful with some punctuation revision. I wouldn't change any words or line breaks, but adding commas, colons, semi colons, and/or periods and making the capitalization in the first words of each line to be more congruent with the natural grammar of the piece would do some things for the work. I think it would help the reader see the piece as more naturally conversational, which would allow the impact of the strong sentiment to float to the surface better and prevent the reader from getting bogged down in trying to find the flow between the thoughts. Secondly I think it would allow the form of the poem to be a stronger scaffolding for what you are saying. The short lines are aesthetically perfect and lend the "ton of bricks" that u/yundarko666 mentions, and I think the powerful diction would shine out better with some 

You're very welcome. Oh, I didn't know that is a word! Thanks! You learn something new every day. I will post soon, need one more feedback. :)

Thank you! I meant 'liken' as in finding resemblance in something, though I don't really like the word, I just wanted to use something short.  
And I'd love to read your poem, I obviously empathize with this subject so it would be interesting to see your perspective.

This is really good. I love the formatting, the theme, how the lyrical subject is the one apologising when it is obvious who should truly be saying "I'm sorry".  

  Found a typo: 15th line: 'liken' instead of 'link'.  

I have a poem about mothers and how they should be, which unfortunately is not always the case; but it is not in English, so nevermind... haha, I'll translate it one day and post it here probably.  
  
Good work, keep it up!  
  
Cheers and happy writing!  
  

Felt this, my mom saw my father in me. Therefore her guilt, shame, and anger were put out on me since he didnt allow it. 

"You gave my books away"

Even the "least meaningful" lines have this sharpness to them. This cutting resentment, that appears to have perhaps become pity in some way? At the time, it's a realization that you could be one in the same? That's at least how I interpreted it.

I enjoyed this very much :)

This is wonderful!  Thank you for sharing it.

Is there a chance that, in line 22 you mean "some time" rather than the adverb "sometime"?  

I really like this poem. The line enjambment gives it a staccato feel which really emphasizes the heartache of the piece. 

Mother,  
I am sorry I left you  
Crying but  
You gave my books away  
And gnawed at my soul  
When I lived under  
The wreckage of your life  
So listen, mother  
We will not recover  
What you robbed me of  
But I found it elsewhere  
And I am sorry  
I have ever shared a word  
I said to him with you,  
Because you still liken me  
To the girl who  
Married a child's torturer  
But I will not say  
That I lived with one  
For years because  
I haven't seen you  
For sometime and  
I am  
So sorry.
