Mother Oh Mother...Where Did You Go?


My mom was always there
She explained what was fair.

She told me that she loved me
She said it's okay just to be me.

She said it was my choice in what to believe
She said she'd always have faith in me.

She said she'd always be here
To lend a listening ear.

Then one  day she disappeared
She left a note that said one day she'd return.

That day was 10 yrs. ago
Now I have a mother I don't even know.

They told me her mind is bothered
Due to the acts of a horrible father.

In her heart she'll always mean well
But mentally she'll forever fail.

I thought it was my fault she left me
But it was the fate of mommy.

My mother said it was me she loved
I was her child, her "gift from above".

I love my mother with all my heart
Even though we're miles apart.

Oh, so painful and so beautiful.  You obviously have a lot of love for here.  Welcome to passions and our wonderful little family!

I thought this was very well written about your birthmother.  Unfortunate that things like that happen.  Your a daughter to be proud of.  If she only knew!
~~nice writing~~

It always hurts to be abandoned, and I'm sorry for what happened to you. You have great talent, though. I hope to see more of your work soon!
