As years go by
Location
5 years old just me and my mom
As years go by
I ask about the man that never been in sight.
As years go by
I wonder why the man don't want to be in my life.
As years go by
I wonder why my mom cries at night.
As years go by
I start to question my looks in self worth.
As years go by
I question why the man does
Not love me.
Can the man see how much I hurt.
As years go by
My love, care and compassion
For others start to fade away.
As years go by
I become a teenager.
As years go by
I don't know how to love or care for my stepfather.
As years go by
I feel ashamed to love another
Male figure besides the man.
As years go by
I pushed people away.
As years go by
I lose hope for the man.
As years go by
I see more of self slip away.
As years go by
I stop crying and thinking about the man.
As years go by
I see Shalae without the man.
As years go by.
