Leaving me

I had to tell,
They used to yell.
I had enough,
I acted tough.

She had to leave,
Her time had come.
You didn’t save me,
You left me, mum.

Leaving me behind,
Acting so blind,
Just wanting to rewind,
Why are you so unkind?

Having to say good-bye,
Secretly wanting to cry,
Wishing you would stand by,
But always having to lie.
