I wish you were there

From the day we are born our mothers our the people we cherish A relationship is made that we never want to perish. But we grow up and we learn. As a baby girl I never knew right from wrong My mother was strong. I wanted to be just like her. But somewhere along the line something went missing. I was growing up and she wasnt there. How to shave, how to brush my hair, how to wash my hair. All of it. She wasn't there. I watched all little girls do things with their mom. Have a house with their mom. Its all I wanted. But she stood still in time. Eventually I moved on from nursery rhymes and needed to learn how to be a girl. She wasn't there. I had to do it alone. But the job is done and now all I have to say is...I wish you was there.
