My own mother

You carried me in you

But you walked away

Like I was just something you had to do

When people ask about your kids 

you don't mention me

you don't mention the daughter whose practically lost at sea

you don't say who I am

You don't claim me at all

Like I am nothing to you

Like I am nothing at all

You left me

You left me when I needed you the most

A baby

A baby lost

A baby lost without it's former host

But no longer am I a baby

No longer are you what I need

What I need

Hmmm

All I need 

All I need is to be seen
