you birthed me
you were supposed to love me
take care of me
and you did for a few years
then you gave up on me
that's when it all started
i wonder, do you ever think about me?
think about the times you hit me
yelled at me
called the police on me
do you miss me at all?
miss our talks
our walks
our car rides
our tv nights
or is it just another day for you
where you don't have to deal with me
see me
talk to me
comfort me
love me
because of you
i feel unlovable
because if my own mom didn't want me
who will?
