Parted

i remember the day so clearly just like it was yesterday i couldn't believe what was happening they'd come to take you away i had no say in the matter their actions were already planned i'm told to pack some of your things and just throw them in a bag i asked what was the hurry we were in the middle of tea but they never gave a bloody damn that's the way it had to be i packed a few of your best toys and folded you some clothes the anger that i felt that day was gradually begginning to show they were ready to arrest me they knew i might get mad it took them a while to calm me down things were starting to look bad i didn't know what i was thinking or what was going on my mind was full of questions asking what had i done wrong they began to put you in the car the heavens let out the rain then i held you in my arms that's when i began to feel the pain i'll never forget your faces as we waved our sad goodbyes what the hell were you thinking when the tears blurred your eyes i wanted to say i was sorry but then it was far too late i'm begging you not to blame me or me that you decide to hate do you remember when i could visit in a family centre somewhere but all that we could think about was how it was unfair well i went to court many times to try and get you back my god that was a nightmare confidence is what i lacked when you came out of foster care and moved in with my mum things got a little better but another nightmare had begun i was given certain times and wasn't allowed to stay the evenings when i had to leave i'd only hope and pray that you did truly love me i'd sit at home alone i knew that you were near by and i could just pick up the phone but the pain it got too much for me as it did for i'm sure but on that christmas eve you came home not wanting anything more well that was the best christmas ever i was feeling alot more strong my flesh and blood united to correct so many wrongs although it felt so strange a new life for us had started being a loving family again never looking back on the day we were parted
