Why Mom
Its almost been 3 years
Since you left us here alone
Why did u have to go?
I need you now like I always have
No matter how much pain you caused
You took my heart and shattered it Mom
We were supposed to be your everything
We are all u should have needed
Why did u let yourself fall?
I tried to hold you up no matter how young I was
I feel like I wasnt good enough
But I know it was the drug
That made you mean
There are some things I wish I never seen
I'm getting older now I'm 23
I got a beautiful baby girl u never got to see
I was 6 months pregnant when u left me
All alone and scared not knowing what to do
And all I really needed was YOU
You dont know the pain you've caused me to feel every single day
My emotions are like a game I never want to play
I dont want to handle the pain
It cuts like a knife so deep inside
Mom Why?
We loved u so much and never got a chance to show it
Why did u have to go and leave us here alone?
