Mommy Why?

by Raychil   Aug 2, 2006


Mommy what are you doing,
With the bags in your hands?
Are you going to drop them off?
I don't think I understand

Mommy why are you crying?
Did I do something wrong?
I know what will cheer you up
We can sing our nighttime song

Mommy why did you say that?
That "you're sorry and goodbye"
Mommy you're confusing me
Now I'm about to cry

Mommy where are you going?
You just walked out the door
It's almost time to tuck me in
Don't you love me anymore?

Daddy says you left us
But I still don't see why
Is it because of that other man
Who often would drop by?

Mommy why'd you hurt me?
Not just me but daddy too
You left us alone and that's not right
But mommy I still love you

Mommy I hope it was worth it
Because my heart is hurting so bad
Mommy I hope you're happy
Because now daddy and I are sad..
