Where Are You (mother)

by marilyn marti   Oct 29, 2007


She buried me so deep
I can hardly breathe
She put her life first
and forgot about me

Is her job to be a mother?
I don't really understand
Instead of loving me more
She loves another man.

Sometimes things are fine
And all I do is smile
But all the pain she's caused..
only seems to pile

When will she see?
Can she ever realize?
That I am her blood..
(and I have her eyes)

There are some days
where her words pierce my soul
She had all my heart
but she chose to let it go.

I never asked her..
to give me everything
but she shot me down
and ripped off my wings

So I will crumble
and crawl back to my hole
I never had her love
and still I am alone.

Thanks for the memories
and all of the tears..
for I have endured this..
for so many years.

Go have your fun,
have a good time.
It's time to accept,
I'm not part of your life.
