Who Was He Mother?

Who was he, Mother? The man you loved? The one you left To relax his guilt For not loving back? Who was he, Mother? The man who kept you heart? The one you replaced With the boy Who you couldn’t love back? Who was he, Mother? The man who held your dreams? The one you thought of When the boy kissed And you couldn’t kiss back? There is this man, Mother The man I love The one I left To relax his guilt For not loving back There is this man, Mother The man who keeps my heart The one I replaced With a boy Who I cannot love back There is this man, Mother The man that holds my dreams The one I think of When the boy kisses And I cannot kiss back I want him, Mother The man I love The one I want to run to The one I am guilty for Wanting to love me back
