Mom, I Do Love You So

We've shared all our lives,
But through many lies.
Our story's so long,
Yet something feels wrong.

Our silence is pain,
a secret remains.
We could be best friends,
and not just pretend.

I want you to know,
what's inside my soul.
But you don't see why,
I'm ruining my life.

So secrets I'll keep,
My dreams they will kill.
I think you should know,
I do love you so.
