I remember the first time I coloured outside of the lines A small ginger cat, with an orange glow 3 years old, disappointed But it was ok Because my mother told me so The next time, aged 5 Kicked a boy who picked on me "I'm taller" he'd boast Myself, smaller than most Between my ever innocent lips The taste of revenge Mother assured me there was nothing wrong With a little self defence Fell from grace A growing, steady 8 Pushed down the handbrake Whilst mother put the groceries in the boot The car in front let out a small hoot Broken lights and a childs cry But mother gave the lady her details Saying it was her mistake Saving me, again, from shame I was a good boy through my teens That was until, sweet 16 And i couldnt stop staring At the smile she was wearing We kissed, that's what started it 9 months later another childs cry But this time it wasn't my daughters It was mine The boy inside me Longing for a mother who once sheltered me From colouring out the lines, bullies and car park travesty's But she was no longer there |
