June 14th 1997

You left me here, alone and confused
A vulnerable seven year old
You loved me like my mother never could
Like my mother loved you
You loved me for all that I was
Not anything that I couldn't
You tried to let my mother see
I couldn't be like my sister
My life full of misery
You taught her well to pretend to love me
At least you tried
At least you cared...
Now youre gone, theres no one there
Its been 8 long years...
I have done so much now
You'd be so proud
But no matter all the great things I would say
I really wish sometimes that I had died with you that day
Just to be happy
I have so many empty dreams...
Something you would've prevented
But you left us all
You left me
On that quiet still summer morning
That was June 14th.
