Mom

From your womb is where I came 
I got spanked, you gave me my name, 
My first months you never left my side 
But that day you did, I just cried, 
Staying with him, you couldn't  take it
But for my sake you could have faked it, 
I wish you were still my daddy's wife 
I have longed for you near me all my life, 
If it wasn't for you I would not be here 
So in my heart you'll always be dear, 
This is for you mom wherever you are 
Whether you are near or very far.
