Mother

To my mother, wherever she is I'm sorry I wasn't good enough I'm sorry you had to leave But I was just a baby I couldn't even read But still you left Without a word To my father and I And you took my dear sister Madison And that made me want to cry They said that you were somewhere In North Carolina But they wouldn't tell me where And the only thing I remember Is that is was very unfair But that's life for you, isn't it? Taking and leaving you with nothing but Misery in return And although you left us And made it clear that your love wasn't there I still love you And I forgive you Goodbye mother, this is all I am to say And I hope that you read this And hear what I have to say
