Your Son

I have known you since the day I was formed. I have loved you long before I was even born. You conceived me for nine months and took care of me since then until now. You fed me with your unconditional love, like the Father from the heaven's above. You were there when I first opened my eyes, you were there when my first word came out of my mouth. Oh how I loved it when you would hug me, especially when you kiss me. Years passed and my time as a child has ended, and our bond had slowly drifted. Is this happening because it is a cycle of life or just a wall being built between mother and child? I have tried to break the wall between us, but each time a destroy one, another appears. What is this that's trying to keep us apart? What is this that's tearing us apart. I have wondered what might be on the other side of this unending layer of walls. How I wonder what is behind those thick layer of walls. Years passed by and I'm still trying to break these walls. I'm having thoughts of giving, but that won't stop me at all. I have known you since the day I was formed, but you said to me, "NO. You don't know me at all." I am confused and bothered, for if what you said was true, then I don't know what to believe anymore. Is the Truth that I know the truth, or the truth that I know a lie?
