Right Now
Why go back?
Why try to change it now?
Where were you when I needed someone?
Now you're back
and I'm not handling it well!
Your time has come and gone
for you to waltz back in.
I wish you wanted me back then,
and you would be my best friend.
Instead you left me alone and scared
You walked away and did not care
practically strangers is how we live
It is hard to bare at times.
This is very hard to say
but mom you walked away..
I wish I could move pass it
But some things you do not forget.
I have tried to forgive you
but something tells me not to.
It feels like yesterday
when the phone rang.
and you told me
You'd had enough!
I was on my own
but i would be ok you said.
Life sucked after that I
was thrown out and down on my luck.
Now here I stand with my accomplishments in hand
and you are trying to take the credit for what I did.
This has been bothering me so
that I needed someone to know.
~~Thanks Linda Marie for the idea to write~~
