Dear Mom

You said you'd always be there 

but youre no where to be found

I cant believe you left my lying here

I'm scared and youre not around

how does that heroin feel racing in your veins

as your daughter waits in pain.

She holds her little sister and feels her bones

as mommy hasnt fed her when she cries and moans

shes hungry, i can hear, so am i, sorry dear

theres nothing more to say as i lay her down

on the cool soft ground

as she takes her last breath i say fast

"I'll miss you love, better years will come"

but for the lonely nights I've cried

the years I've aged in pain

you will never know that feeling 

of losing the person you need 

to laugh and cry and love you most

many years roll on now that mom is also gone

drugs ate her alive 

but truly I'm not sad she died

I couldnt never forgive you

even if i tried 

you can never make up 

for those lonely nights i cried
