Regret

I here your words,
                                       I just don't care,
                        My head is filled with a black cloud.
                                      You did me wrong.
               Then you slip out of my world as fast as you came.
                                   I forget what you did.
                       My angry screams become sad sobs.
                      Why must this happen at such a time.
                    I never said I love you, I never said goodbye.
                        Please come back just one more time.
                       My prayers echo through my house.
                           Maybe if I believe hard enough, 
                     you will come back to take me with you. 
                                  Mom, I love and miss you.
