Tired debate morning: I not English morning.-myself


You became nothing but a coward
When you walked out that door
You Never looking back at me
You left a family
The one you helped grow
And said you loved deeply
At so young When you left
I was ashamed
So ashamed to call you my mom
Even with every tear I cried
And call I made
You never looked back
I use to ask myself daily
Were you really my mother?
Or nothing but a coward?
There is no fine line between mother and Coward
Mothers loves and cares
And cowards leaves with no goodbyes
Nearly two year later
I have come to realize
Mom you are nothing but a coward.
And I will not become what you have.


The author's comments:
My mother was never in my life, she was always working. I took care of myself all of my childhood, and grew up very fast. When I was around 14, my mother chose a man over my sister and I. She hasn't been involved since, and never calls. I love her, but honestly she's a coward for not caring for me.
