Mother

I felt when you said
You don't want me that way

Heard the news and you went away
Disappeared to a foreign land
Birthdays have come and gone
But I’m still around

Do you see me in you?
There's more of me for you to know
Fractured pieces across the globe
I’m far from whole

Does the cloud linger too?
Creeping doubts set in your mind
Did I do that to you?
I wish I was fine

I'd talk to my mother but I'm not that strong
I'd miss my father If I knew him at all

You’re the blood in me
Born of jealousy
You’re the blood in me
Now you’re dead to me

I cherish my mother
She's so goddamn strong
I have no father
I don't know you at all
