Dear Child

November 18, 2017
You made me worry Forced decisions to make He said he wouldn't leave you But he's not around now... I would have loved you by myself Or give you a different life My dear, you were troublesome And you weren't even here No pitter-patters No babbles...nothing You were not born I can't help but think about you How your father would have stayed Or take you from me... My decision would've been cruel I couldn't be there for you But since you're not here Was never brought into this world I didnt have to choose... I don't have to say "sorry" But why do I feel sorry? Sorry for you? -Mommy
