Hear Me Out

Don't Ask Me Why

I remember just like how we used to be back then,
I tell stories to you, not to notebook using pen.
How I was  telling even the simplest things I could,
The happiest, the saddest moments and how I stood.

I remember when things didn’t go that well and right,
You were the one who’s there to encourage me to fight.
Whenever someone or people were picking on me,
You’re there to comfort me, and that’s all you’d ever be.

I also remember how things all ‘a sudden changed,
Everything’s different from now, I’m raged.
You’ve became something else, now seems like I don’t know you,
I cannot approach you anymore, what do I do?

I remember how you forced me to be something else,
How I did not do nothing just for you to see my essence.
You even kept on comparing me to everyone,
All my teenage years, I only want to laugh, have fun.

I remember, my ignored stories, I could just drop,
But you know what, I’m trying my best to keep this up.
Because you’re my mom and I want “us” to be back, see,
But I, I need and I want nothing but leniency.
