Mommy why'd you do it why'd you leave my dad
Didn't we have enough problems?Did you have to make him mad?
Mommy why'd you leave us, your 4 loving kids
Were we so very hard to have to put up with?
Steph's all grown up now , but i see it in her eyes
her hearts been broken from your lies , her hearts soaked with cries.
Ash is disturbed as usual but now its even worse
I see her on the streets and all she does is curse
She's angry at you , her and himat the world at her work and at everything within
Dan`s still a kid now don't take to much to heart
Im sure he didn't mean to hurt you , its just one of life's parts
you think you could hurt him and he'd be just fine
revenge is what he's after if u think not you`d be blind
I, Im all alone now mommy sitting in the dark
Writing u this poem about how much this hurts
maybe if you told us when it first began
we wouldn't be so angry and would know where to stand
your selfish deeds broke all our heartsthat's all i seem to see
another pill wont fix this mommy this time leave it be
Im 18 years old now , yet i still need you
you were never there before its about time u paid your dues
Send me to counseling thinking it`ll be fixed in a day
only a couple more sessions till im out of the way
I`ll tell you mommyyour missing a big part
of who your children are and how much you've ripped apart.
You can sit there crying, feeling sorry for yourself
In the end this is all your fault mommy
you broke daddy's heart.
your tore our family apart.

It is a very selfish thing to do!

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh dear, this is terrible, dearest friend, that is very selfish for someone to do and my heart cries out to you and your family and dad for all the pain you must feel! (wipes tears) No one should ever be left feeling abandoned, my prayers go out to all the victims out in the world and you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

this is so sad I can really relate to this my mother also left my grandparents raised us

Real friends celebrate in who we are and have faith in all that we can become
Lots of Love

Great poem. I enjoyed reading this and felt the pain and suffering you felt when writing this. Thank you so much for sharing this heartfelt poem with me and others. Great job, I wish you well with your other works, I know they also will be wonderfully expressed, as this one was!
