Mother

You're never there for me, Like you used to be. You don't kiss away my boo boo’s, Or hold me when i've had a nightmare. Seems like just yesterday you were teaching me How to tie up my shoes, and ride my bike. Now its silence and awkward stares between us. I thought we had a special connection, I mean you did give birth to me. Time is wasting away, and you’re just sitting there. One day, i hope you realize you made a mistake, I tried so hard to be apart of you. I guess, you just didn't want me anymore, You have him now to love and care for you. Just remember when he leaves you, I won't be here anymore waiting for you, Caring my heart on my sleeve. I'm over trying to get your attention, I moving onto my new life. I hope we will reconnect one day, Maybe you'll do better with your grandkids. I know one thing, i'll be a better mother than you. I'll never leave my kids, or cast them aside for a man. Ill nurture them as much as i can, and make sure they know they're loved. I want them to experience life, The way i couldn't have. I was too busy pleading for your affection, To see that i really didn't need it. Why try for something if it's not there? Yeah, i had to learn the hard way, But in the end it wasn't worth the tears i shed. You weren't worth my time
