I was born at Zero,
Not knowing the upcoming
Who’d be my family and friend’s
Who’d love me or hate me
What my life would be like
I did not even know if I were a girl or boy
Or even what those words were like
All I knew was that there were people around me
Women and men
Not all the same, different traits
Skinny, Tall, Gay and Straight,
They could hurt me or choose to love
Hold me or let go of me
That’s why she took a hold of me
Attached to a lady I didn’t know
I just knew she loved me, not seeing the obvious but seeing the want
Growing of age and seeing more
Seeing who hates me and who loves me
Who cares and who hurts
Seeing that I’m not perfect and neither is my family
Seeing the Clear and most obvious
Not seeing what I want
Tearing because of the Hurt that people chose to give me
Tearing because of the feelings
Something I had to learn
You aren’t my worst enemy or even my friend
You’re my best friend
Someone who understands me
Not like most, kind of unique and slow
You make me laugh when you’re being funny
You love me like no one else will ever love me
I am your heart and you are mine
But you are 150ft behind
I take everything to mind
The drinks and the declines
Starvation and home replacements
Words and actions
You let me down the most
Not seeing what I took in close
Where you stand now
It’s not beneath the clouds
You’re now sitting but not with me, You’re underneath
I can’t change anything, but my words
I just hope you listen, and take a You-turn
Cause we were born at zero with nothing to fix
The way I remember was you plus the kids
I miss you mama
