Momma

Eternal happiness
Part time bliss
Neither tangible
for me it seems
like a dark cloud 
that follows me
everywhere I go
I need to know
What did I do to you
I didn't ask to be here
like an old pair of shoes
you don't want
and no longer wear
you gave me away
to stay and be raised
by someone else
as an innocent child
imagine how that felt
there wasn't anyone else
that I needed and wanted
to be with more than you
don't worry momma
I'll always love you!
