written at a low point in my life
All alone I sit and wonder,
How did I make such a blunder.
I believed everyon one of your lies
And thought you believed in family ties.
But now I’m left a single mother
Left quite alone to suffer
Behind the cement and iron bars
As my soul, prison slowly mars
My son will have no one
Because of the things we’ve done
We both made our mistakes in the past
But now I’m alone and suffering last.
What about our innocent child?
How can he just be defiled?
We created this precious life
Now ties are severed by your knife.
My heart bleeds for my son’s sorrow
How will I explain this tomorrow?
I admit that I’ve done wrong
But now I am growing strong
You amde your decision to go
Althought why I’ll never know
Or do I care; I just know your gone
You’ve turned away, life carries on
While your child is being born
And from his mother’s ams torn
Do you care how he will feel?
Do you even realize this is real?
At one point you cared
I have seen your soul bared.
But now you ran and hid from me
In your immaturity.
You can’t face the child you made
Your decisions were never weighed.
You were selish and walked away
For this you’ll suffer someday.
I know how you feel inside
Because of this, part of me died.
When you just turned your back
Left me and your son, in fact.
How can you be so cold-hearted?
To not care as mother and son are parted?
The future of both is unknow
When so easily you could have shown
You were capable to love and care
I digress, females beware.
You are incapable of feeling guilt.
On lies alone our relationship was built.
My life will continue on in pain
An I know my actions are not in vain.
I cry at night for my first born son
And what both you and I have done.
But my life is for him alone
Because of him, I am never alone.
As for you, I no longer care
What you do or how you fare.
But I love my son to no avail
And my goals for him will not fail.
My son is my everything,
And you,
Are nothing.
