Why Mommy, Why?

Published: February 2006

Why Mommy must you treat me so bad
I was there for you my whole life!
And now all you do is make me feel sad.
I try to hug you and you push me away.
The situation is getting worse day by day.

Why Mommy could you say I don't love you
When you know that isn't true?
You know I love you with all of my heart and that I need your love too

Why Mommy do you make me cry
All theses hurtful things you say make me feel like I want to die.
How could you choose another man over me,
I would have never believed that something like that would've happened, not even in my wildest dreams.

Mommy, I am in so much pain
Too horrible for me to even name
I will follow your wishes and move
So I'll no longer be there to mess up your groove
Before I go, there is one thing I must ask

Why Mommy didn't our mother-daughter love last?

Ok...that really hit me. My mom was not a drug addict nor was she after another man; she was after my dad. He was an alcoholic, abusive, and I am inclined to believe because of my mom and my dad I lost my sister who would be alive today. I sometimes think of the reasons why she'd stay, but our cultures were different and I always say, she didn't know better, but she did and she still stayed, destroying her life and not only that but destroying her kids' lives too... oh well...
I'm sorry that your mother-daughter love didn't last, but try to always find a good memory of her. One day maybe she'll come and say I'm sorry and you could forgive her, not for the love she never gave you but for the love you gave her :)
Good luck

My mom was a bad drug addict. When I was about 6 my dad took me from my mom because of the drugs. I am now 13 and I haven't seen or heard from my mom for three years. She had a husband that she chose over me. Last time my brother talked to her was 11 years ago. I'll always love her no matter what but she hurt me more then ever.
