I'm Sorry, Mom!

It's been a few months
Since I've really grown up.
I've accepted myself as his daughter
And I've gone back to the heavenly father.
He's shown me I want to be the best I can be
And, mom, I hope you can see
That I truly regret all the hate
I've given you with my heart every day.
I'm sorry, mom.
Because of the heavenly father in the sky,
I have finally opened up my eyes.
He's shown me how cruel I have been,
To my very own loving, supporting kin.
I'm sorry, mom.
I know you were young when you had me.
Back then, it was hard for you to raise a baby.
That's why you gave my older brother up,
Because you were still too young.
He's back in our lives now and we love him.
Because of him, we're about to have new kin.
But I'm sorry, mom, I never meant to say I hated you.
I know it wasn't your fault we lost my baby brother.
You really are a good mother.
I know it wasn't your fault we moved around a lot.
We were dirt poor and in tight knots.
And I know I said I hated you for keeping my dad away,
But it's a brand new me on a brand new day.
I'm sorry for all the cruel words I've thought about you.
The heavenly father has shown me how to forgive you;
After all, you are only human. You can't help your mistakes.
And now I promise to love you and hold you in my heart.
I'm sorry for every doubting your love. I love you, please forgive me.
