Mother Is No Mother

I cried all night waiting for you 
But that didn't matter to you 
I called for you hoping you'd come to me 
But you were to far gone to notice me
So I say Mother is no Mother 
Mother is no longer here 
Mother just made me feel like I didn't belong here
I waited many years for mother to change 
After waiting for so long my emotions turned from sad to range 
Mother is is no Mother 
She never loved me
Mother will never be my mother

thats a sad poem we will never unerstand why people leave us. ig is heartbreaking. my mother left home when i was 13 years old the man she left us for was 22 year younger i was too young to understand the situation. i hope she rests in peace. i wrote a prayer poem for mum. the worst song ever for me was chirpy chirpy cheep cheep.

My mom left me and my siblings when I was 5 with the man that abused and raped me.
