You taught me to walk.
you taught me to talk.
but before I could thank you
for all that you've done,
you decided
to go off and run.
you ran away
without saying goodbye.
you made me stay
and I still ask why.

mommy I loved you
I thought you would know
to this day
You still don't see
that with you is were
I wanted to be.
you hurt me so bad
and now I am mad
mom did you love me
did you care?
did you even know I was there?

well guess what
I am still here
hiding for you
and hiding the fear.
I have to see it
and ask myself why?
why did you leave
without saying goodbye?

I have these questions
inside my head
are you dead?
did you disappear?
there has to be a reason
that you left me here.
this feeling I have inside
is my love for you
that you denied.

I've felt alone
for the longest time
no word from you
not even a dime

until I was six
you played your tricks.
coming and going
or just passing by.
was everything you told me
a solid cold lie?
my love for you
atone point was strong
but I have waited
way too long
wondering and watching
as time flew by
asking if I'll ever get a reply.

now its over
my time is up
I have to go
but there is something
you have to know
day by day
I waited for you
hoping someday
my dreams would come true.

until they do
my words are final
I start to cry
but its time to say
mommy this is
my last goodbye.
