Spare Parts

A Lost Life

By: WritingForFun

Listen mom I'm five now

I'm all grown up

I can go to school the whole day

I promise to you it'll be okay

I'm a grown up

 

I'm ten now mom

You can just drop me off

Really there's no need for you to come in

Remember I’m ten

I love you mom, it'll be okay

So there's this party mom

But remember I am fifteen so

I mean I won’t do anything wrong

Please mom, I'll clean and cook whatever you need

Please! Even Ethan's going to be there. It’ll be okay

I'm gonna miss you mom

But it's not like I'll be far

I'm eighteen, college is ready for me

I'm ready for college

I love you mom, you've always been there for me

These memories, no, not memories, these dreams

What we could be mom please

Tell the doctor no, you aren't sure

He won't do it

Please mom, remember you love me

Mom can't you hear me

Can't you hear my pleas

Why are you getting rid of me?

What did I do wrong?

Is it my fault mom?

Please mom I can fix it, I can change

Just listen to me mom

Please think of what we could be

Don't just get rid of me

I love you mom

Please he’s hurting me

He won't let go of me

Is it too late to tell you I'm sorry?

I’m sorry I couldn't be what you need

I'm sorry, I know it was all me

I'm sorry

I was only thinking of me

It wasn't like you chose to have me

I was just the ‘accident’

Maybe it's better this way

Good thing you didn't hear my pleas

Heard all the things we could have been

I could have been the child

You could have been the adult

An unsung dynamic duo

You chose to get rid of me

You made the decision to destroy me

You decided I was not to be made

I was not to be seen

I was just spare parts
