Vanished Away

Your words are sad they say Your heart cant simply feel that way Way to broken to repair these days Way to hurt to ever return Return to the days of joy and tears Return to the people who left her there There in the cold to fend for herself There all alone to love her siblings Sibling became her kids Siblings she took ownership Ownership of the beautiful lives Ownership of adult life Life where she watched her “kids” grow Life where she chose to grow on her own Own accord Own life skills Skills she learned by herself Skills she taught them as well Well as she could being seven Well as she could not knowing how How to be a mom How to replace her parents Parents who divorced Parents who started a war War between houses War with kids in-between In-between the lies they told In-between the love they chose Chose chaos Chose to split Split the holidays in two Split the houses completely Completely shocked she became Completely scared she proclaimed Proclaimed they loved her Proclaimed it was the best Best was all she gave to her “kids” now Best was what she wanted Wanted them to be happy at her own cost Wanted them to see all she did Did it hurt? Did he say good bye Good bye’s never happen Good bye’s make it worse Worse to wake up to dads stuff gone Worse to realize love had vanished Vanished into the night as he Vanishes into the night as she held her “kids” tight Away Tight
