Would You Be Here?/Mommy I need You

 

 

Would you be here

For Her

The moment she needs you

The moment she calls

Says that world

You haven't heard from her lips

In so many years

   That the voice she uses

Has faded from your memory

The moment she utters

'Mommy I need you'

             Will you be here for her

      Will you pick up your phone

Will you listen to her cry

Or will you

Ignore the call

Push it back for the third time

       In a row

Go back to texting your lover

Never thinking

That the next time I call her

That need for you

Has….. morphed to anger

To that feeling of abandoned

……….And I will take your place

In taking her tears as my burden

Holding her in my heart

Tearing away the pain

Because her words will change

      'Sister I fucked up'

With a mocking laughter

Meant for ears not mine

Because you pushed back her call

And miraculously she found me

In that moment of need
