Mommy Dearest

I'm tired of having to always be an adult, always have responsibilities. I just want to leap without looking, and run without direction... not forever just for a little.

you gave them up

And for that I thank you.

you stopped and I knew

that my responsibility was you

they come and go

But I always protect you.

my time will show

all the pain,

I saved you.

All the b*****s i've been

and all the Guardians you weren't

all the times that I've begged 

and then you got hurt...

so i get off my knees 

and I bandage you up

because the tears that you bleed

I swallow them up

I carry the burdens 

sweep up the dirt

because all my life i've felt abandon and hurt

you were never a mother

So I had to grow up.
